It’s a Black Kind of Day

January Magazine this morning features a substantial excerpt from Scottish author Tony Black’s new novel, explaining in its intro:

In Truth Lies Bleeding, readers are introduced to Edinburgh Detective Inspector Rob Brennan, recently returned to work from psychiatric leave after the death of his brother. His superior hesitantly assigns Brennan to probe the case of a dismembered teenage girl found in an alleyway dumpster. It isn’t long before that investigation leads Brennan down a twisted path prominent with drug abuse, child abduction, and professional hit men.
