Sleep like the dead - Alex Gray (DCI Lorimer #8)

There’s a hitman on the streets of Glasgow: unpaid and angry. He’s decided to settle his own debts. DCI William Lorimer is faced with a string of professional killings – no witnesses or much conclusive evidence. Criminal psychologist Solly Brightman is as much used to frustrating budget cuts. But Solly is more closely connected to the murders than he could possibly know . . .

As the hitman plans a bloody ransom to get his fee, the race is on to find out who hired him – and who’s next on the hit list.

From a grandeur of the university tower to gritty backstreets rife with crime, Alex Gray brings Glasgow like no other writer. In DCI Lorimer, Gray has created the most dynamic Scottish detective since Rebus.
