I'm trying to revamp some memories here, since I did live near Glasgow for 4 hear, and I liked it. I'll go back tomorrow if only I could get a job, but Brexit had stopped my and many others' dream Anyway, the book is a list of last century's murders in Glasgow, the ones that shocked the people, made the headlines and sometimes changed the laws. Interesting, if you're into real crime stories.
Nov 20, David Ross rated it really liked it. A really interesting collection of murder stories from the 1st half of 20th century Glasgow. A little bit of the author's storytelling fills in the blanks from well researched newspaper and police files and it makes these tales much more interesting to read and brings life to these tragic events. Sep 09, Paul rated it it was ok. More a collection of extended newspaper articles, but none the less interesting for all that.

Plenty of tales taking place in familiar landmarks and streets, and a number that I had never heard of before. Definitely interesting from a local history standpoint rather than a literature one.

The father of the house, William Watt, was five hours drive away, on a fly fishing holiday but police still suspect him. He had taken the guard dog with him, which he never did. He established his alibi like a man trying to establish an alibi. William Watt was accused of the murders and sent to prison for three months.

Released, Watt decided to investigate the murders himself and put out the word that he would pay for information. Peter Manuel came forward and the two men met for a drink in Glasgow. They spent eleven hours together, drinking, driving, talking. The next time they met was in the High Court in Glasgow, where Manuel was accused of those murders and many others. The Long Drop is a reimagining of the trial and of the drunken night the two men spent carousing in Glasgow.
The Book Of Glasgow Murders (Neil Wilson Publishing)
Police detective Alex Morrow tackles crime in Glasgow, a Scottish city where the boundaries between the law-abiding and the criminal worlds are very blurred, including in her own family. The latest book in the series sees a murdered women's body surface in Loch Lomond, bringing Glasgow police detective Alex Morrow to nearby Helensburgh. It seems to be a quaint and sleepy place but this apparently idyllic Victorian town is shot through with deception, lies and vested interests.
As DI Alex Morrow investigates the death of a young businessman, she uncovers a vicious network of power and corruption reaching back 20 years. To the night Princess Diana died and a year-old girl sat in a car with a dead body, the murder weapon still in her hand.
