While perusing Fantastic Fiction as I often do in search of new Authors, I came across Scottish writer Denzil Meyrick. Whisky from Small Glasses (Waterstones Scottish book of the year 2015) is the first in this excellent thriller series.
We are introduced to DCI Jim Daley as he leaves Glasgow and his troubled marriage to head up an investigation of a body found in a small seaside town. There are lots of interesting and intriguing characters in the tight knit community of Kinloch and the story rolls along at a cracking pace. Plenty of dark humour and I loved the banter between Daley and his DI Brian Scott. As mentioned lots of interesting characters that hopefully Meyrick returns to as the series progresses. A very meaty police procedural overall and I look forward to reading more in this series.
