The Scribbler

'Very few authors could sustain the tension of a final scene over one hundred and eighteen pages. Maitland, however, has the reader bound up as tightly as a hostage, and he never loses that grip... this is an outstandingly good book.' Rosemary Kaye"He's back, Carrie.

Roger Gayther was on the force that failed to catch him and remembers every chilling detail. Now, after all these years, there's a sudden death featuring The Scribbler's tell-tale modus operandi. Can Gayther and Carrie track the murderer down and bring him to justice before the slaughter starts again?

DS Hutton Box Set

"Douglas Lindsay is someone deserving to be spoken of as a master." SHOTS"Lindsay is an underrated writer with an eccentric, blisteringly satirical voice." SUNDAY EXPRESSThe DS HUTTON BOX SET contains the first four novels in the cult Scottish noir series, as Detective Sergeant Hutton, suffering from PTSD, determinedly depressed, alcoholic, sex-obsessed and often barely functional, investigates a series of strange and brutal murders around the south side of Glasgow. From the opening case where a serial murderer meets police corruption head-on, through a bizarre tale of murder by crow, and the bloody, Biblical ravages of a church merger, every Hutton book is a brutal, darkly comic, sex and gore-filled thrill ride. Contains: THE UNBURIED DEADA PLAGUE OF CROWSTHE BLOOD THAT STAINS YOUR HANDSSEE THAT MY GRAVE IS KEPT CLEAN Coming in October 2020:DS Hutton Book 5: IN MY TIME OF DYING What Amazon reviewers have said about the Hutton series: "The protagonist is so broken, yet such a sympathetic character, and so beautifully drawn. A massive cut above standard cop thrillers; highly recommended!""He is one of the most believable characters I've ever read, and although he's a miserable git, I can't help but love him.""Very fresh take on the police procedural, approaching from a psychological perspective - Hutton is a brilliantly damaged character, well-rounded and believably flawed.""The book was as good as the others; loads of laughs and laugh out loud moments, characters that are funny, the book was very well written.""An amazing storyteller. Douglas Lindsay is so under rated. He is much better than Ian Rankin, but beware, not for the faint hearted.""Douglas Lindsay's novels scare the hell out of me, especially A Plague of Crows, but they are so good that you just have to keep reading. Even if it is 2 o'clock in the morning and you have to keep checking under you bed!""I feel like I know Hutton personally! His cases are gritty and raw but there is still time for a little humour, making these stories closer to real life. Great stuff!"
