Imagine my shock when I picked this Glasgow gem up in a Blackpool charity shop last year! Great reading in my own dialect ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿป

My first thought was โ€œHow can they understand our lingo down here?!โ€ ๐Ÿคฃ

It should also be available to order from any bookshop, and it's also available internationally (ISBN:978-1909832893). I'm still sorting out some local stockists, and I'll let you know once these are available.

Finished The Mermaids Singing by Val McDermid earlier. A great introduction to the Tony Hill/Carol Jordan series. However, I would advise to skip it if youโ€™re the queasy type!

Luckily, Iโ€™m not. ๐Ÿคฃ
