An Average Glasgow Hitman

<p></p><p>Welcome to post-independence Scotland and the Glasgow shithole you'll never forget - Docksburn. Here the rain never stops the whisky burns and the line between politics and organised crime has long since bled out.</p><p>Greg McManus is forty stuck on the rigs trapped in a stale marriage and sick to death of playing it safe. One pull of a trigger in the Highlands lights a fuse he didn't know he'd been carrying. The quiet man nobody noticed is gone - now he's hunting bigger game and Glasgow is full of prey.</p><p>Junior MacNamara runs the city's underworld like a warlord in a blazer. Rivals want him gone. Cops want him caged. Family want him in the ground. None of them understand: Junior doesn't lose.</p><p>When their worlds collide the streets boil over. Albanian trafficking rings tighten their grip. A megalomaniacal influencer turns crime into performance art. Monsters stir in MMA gyms betrayals are brewed in care homes and fortunes are settled in the lawless gut of The Docksburn Dens.</p><p>Beneath the blood and smoke <em>An Average Glasgow Hitman</em> is about the role of a man - the weight of duty the hunger for freedom and the dangerous desires that claw at both. It's about the modern woman fighting to keep her ambitions alive in a world that still wants to write her ending.</p><p>A savage violent darkly funny debut set in a Scotland of expectations and hereditary shadows - perfect for fans of Irvine Welsh David Peace and TV's <em>MobLand</em> and <em>Gangs of London</em>.</p>
