The dead all have stories to tell.
Glasgow, 1931.
Visiting from London, Dr Jack Cuthbert unexpectedly finds himself at the centre of a horrifying crime. As an experienced pathologist, the local police call upon him to lead the forensic investigation and identify the victims of a bombing in the city. But this is no ordinary crime scene.
Cuthbert must navigate a political as well as a pathological minefield, with British fascists and the city’s notorious razor gangs in the frame. To solve the case, Cuthbert needs to gather all the expertise he can from those around him. But, out of his usual surroundings and working with strangers, who can he trust?
Allan will be appearing at Bloody Scotland this year. You can book your tickets at BloodyScotland.com
Setting the (Crime) Scene: Lin Anderson, Simon Toyne, Allan Gaw
Friday 12th September – 12:30
Setting the (Crime) Scene: Lin Anderson, Simon Toyne, Allan Gaw
We make a deep incision into the world of crime fiction and science fact as we talk forensics with three authors whose books deliver thrills, chills and blood-spattered spills.
A gangland slaying and a missing movie star are at the heart of Whispers of the Dead, the sensational new Rhona MacLeod thriller from Lin Anderson. Forensic criminologist Laughton Rees faces a race against time to stop a killer in Simon Toyne’s exhilarating new novel Dead Water. Allan Gaw’s pathologist Dr Jack Cuthbert runs the gauntlet between fascists and razor gangs in 1930s Glasgow in To the Shades Descend.
This event will be chaired by Professor James Grieve.
