Past lying / by McDermid, Val,author.;
"It's April 2020 and Edinburgh is in lockdown. It would seem like a strange time for a cold case to go hot--the streets all but empty, an hour's outdoor exercise the maximum allowed--but a mere pandemic doesn't mean crime takes a holiday. When a source at the National Library contacts DCI Karen Pirie's team about documents in the archive of a recently deceased crime novelist, it seems it's game on again. At the center of it, a novel: two crime novelists facing off over a chessboard. But it quickly emerges that their real-life competition is drawing blood. What unspools is a twisted game of betrayal and revenge, and as Karen and her team attempt to disentangle fact from fiction, it becomes clear that this case is more complicated than they ever imagined."--

The Quaker / by McIlvanney, Liam,author.;
"Glasgow, 1969. Violence is a fact of everyday life in the city--the inevitable by-product of razor-gang warfare, organized crime, sectarian hatred, and an absence of hope. But a new sort of savagery has the city in thrall: three women have been found dead in the abandoned tenements and rubble-strewn courtyards of Glasgow's east end, killed on the streets by a monster they call The Quaker. He could be anyone--that man there in the pub, your children's teacher, that quiet workmate from the office or shop-floor. The newspapers are in a frenzy, the powers-that-be are helpless, the city is terrified. Weeks turn into months, and Glasgow's finest are no closer to identifying a suspect. The case needs to be closed--or just closed down--so that the city can begin to heal, move on, and forget. Enter Detective Inspector Duncan McCormack, an outsider from the Highlands, who's been sent in to review the investigation, point out any mistakes, and then quietly, firmly, shut it down. But just as McCormack is about to file his report, another body is found. The Quaker has struck again ... Brilliantly crafted with great depth and nuance, The Quaker is an electrifying thriller that expertly captures the gritty atmosphere of paranoia and hopelessness in a city on the verge of a great upheaval."--
