Times interview
This Glasgow and Paisley-set gangland thriller would make a great TV series
Scotland on Sunday
An enjoyable and fast paced thriller/crime novel that leaves its readers almost as breathless as it leaves many of its characters, though in a rather different way
Undiscovered Scotland
This one isn't to be missed… it’s brilliant!
Waterstones Falkirk
I loved this. It’s addictive, beautifully constructed, and a wild and sometimes surprising ride through a gangland that is both believable and utterly gripping
LiveAndDeadly
Another corker from Mr Meyrick… oooh, this author gets better and better. A brilliant, at times terrifying, story of ganglands, revenge, and how hard it is to escape the life of crime. As ever superb characters and believable plots make this a must read
Waterstones bookseller, Horsham branch
Powerful, plausible and utterly gripping
FIVE STAR REVIEW, Waterstones and Amazon customer
‘Fast paced, brutal and brilliant… Crime writing at its best’
Amazon customer
The author has produced a first class thriller that is as much character driven as its content of action and violence
Good Reads FIVE STAR REVIEW
About the Book
GANGLAND BOSS ZANDER FINN DISAPPEARED AFTER THE BRUTAL MURDER OF HIS SON.
He fled to London, seeking salvation by walking away from his money, his career and his legacy. But when his old second-in-command Malky Maloney tracks him down, Finn knows he must return. Both his real family and his crime family face an existential threat from Albanian mobsters hellbent on taking control of the Scottish underworld and the forces of law and order determined to inflict their own retribution.
Finn’s fight for survival is a rollercoaster ride of brutality, misplaced loyalties and the utterly unexpected. The road to redemption is perilous – and paved with blood.
