The Blood Tide - Neil Lancaster

 The Blood Tide - Neil Lancaster

She read

Publication Date: Feb. 23, 2022

This is the second in the series; it is the first one I have read. 


 In this novel of  struggle for control of the drug market, the bodies pile up.   D.S. Max Craigie and his team investigate, finding not only gangsters, but crooked police and other law officers. 


I’m not sure if this novel truly qualifies as Tartan Noir, but it is certainly hard boiled, atmospheric, and fast paced. I liked it and look forward to the next in the series. 


Although having read the first in the series probably would have given me further background on these well developed characters, The Blood Tide  worked well as a standalone
