***Guardian, Telegraph, Herald Scotland AND The Week BOOK OF THE YEAR***
***Sunday Times TOP 40 Crime Novels in the Last 5 Years***

Shocking, gripping and laugh-out-loud hilarious from the first line to the last. Brilliant Erin Kelly

This frenetic novels strongest assets are its sheer verbal energy and the acerbic views of its heroine, who resembles a female Frankie Boyle Sunday Times

The main character is one of the most extraordinary youll meet between the pages of a book Ian Rankin

A scandalously rude comic masterpiece Daily Telegraph

Sublime Guardian

_________________

Mary Shields is a moody, acerbic probation offer, dealing with some of Glasgows worst cases, and her job is on the line. Liam Macdowall was imprisoned for murdering his wife, and hes published a series of letters to the dead woman, in a book that makes him an unlikely hero and a poster boy for Mens Rights activists.

Liam is released on licence into Marys care, but things are far from simple. Mary develops a poisonous obsession with Liam and his world, and when her son and Liams daughter form a relationship, Mary will stop at nothing to impose her own brand of justice with devastating consequences.

A heart-pounding, relentless and chilling psychological thriller, rich with deliciously dark and unapologetic humour, Worst Case Scenario is also a perceptive, tragic and hugely relevant book by one of the most exciting names in crime fiction.
