A Dirty Dead End
It’s finally happened.
Glasgow’s DCI Pat Curzon is where he always feared he’d end up - in Barlinnie prison.
But even he could never have dreamt it would be for a murder he hadn’t committed.
Staring down the barrel of a whole-life sentence, what should be his darkest hour suddenly becomes a busman’s holiday when a fellow inmate is found murdered in his cell.
Like a bear with a beehive, Curzon cannot help but poke his nose in.
It demands every fibre of his ingenuity to pursue threads that lead outside the prison, every atom of his discretion to keep his sleuthing a secret from the other prisoners.
