Review - Where the Bodies are Buried, Christopher Brookmyre
Book Title: WHERE THE BODIES ARE BURIED
Author: Chris(topher) Brookmyre
ISBN: 9781408702703
Location: Glasgow
Publisher: Little & Brown
Year of Publication: 2011
Detective Catherine McLeod was always taught that in Glasgow, they don't do whodunit. They do score-settling. They do vendettas. They do petty revenge.
It's a lesson that has served her well, but Glasgow is also a dangerous place to make assumptions. Either way she looks at it, she recognises that the discovery of a dead drug-dealer in a back alley is merely a portent of further deaths to come.
Elsewhere in the city, aspiring actress Jasmine Sharp is reluctantly - and incompetently - earning a crust working for her uncle Jim's private investigation business. When Jim goes missing, Jasmine has to take on the investigator mantle for real, and her one lead points to Glen Fallan, a gangland enforcer and professional assassin whose reputation is rendered only slightly less terrifying by his having been dead for twenty years.
