โœฆ Synopsis


Bodies are piling up with grisly messages carved into their chests. Rival gangs are competing for control of Glasgowโ€™s underworld and it seems that Cooper, McCoyโ€™s oldest gangster friend, is tangled up in it all.

Detective Harry McCoyโ€™s first day back at work couldnโ€™t have gone worse.

New drugs have arrived in Glasgow, and theyโ€™ve brought a different kind of violence to the broken city. The law of the street is changing and now demons from McCoyโ€™s past are coming back to haunt him. But vengeance always carries a price, and it could cost McCoy more than he ever imagined.

The waters of Glasgow corruption are creeping higher, as the wealthy and dangerous play for power. And the cityโ€™s killer continues his dark mission.

Can McCoy keep his head up for long enough to solve the case?

Bruised and battered from the events of Bloody January, McCoy returns for a breathless ride through the ruthless world of 1970s Glasgow.
