On Sergeant Anna Cameron’s first day at her new job she discovers she'll be working with her ex, Jamie, who is now married and has a child. Emotionally wrecked after many years without him, at work Anna has plunged headlong into the underworld of the Drag, the haunt of working girls, drug dealers, and sad, seedy men. Someone is carving up the faces of local prostitutes, an old man has been brutally killed, and racist violence is on the rise. Anna must deal with all these issues alongside tensions with Jamie and backstabbing within her own team.

"I loved it. A great, original character, and the plot fairly whizzes along." —Kate Atkinson, author, One Good Turn
"This is gritty as hell, shot through with black humor and with enough pace and atmosphere to give the likes of Denise Mina a run for their money. All this and the chutzpah to create a seedy and unpleasant superintendent named Rankin!" —Mark Billingham, author, Buried
"I couldn't stop reading. The slow-burn investigation and the car-crash relationships were absolutely compelling . . . I loved it." —Catriona Macpherson, author, Bury Her Deep
"Karen Campbell has a wonderful ear for dialogue and I found the descriptions of Glasgow mesmerizing." —Vena Cork, author, Thorn
