Description
1964. A hoard of the finest Scotch whisky ever made—the legendary Dalziel Double Proof—goes missing.
2023. Albie, youngest son of the wealthy Dalziel family, vanishes. His desperate mother turns to Robbie Gould, a disgraced reporter with a reputation as a 'psychic crimebuster'.
Broke and unemployed, Gould is in no position to turn down the job. He throws himself into a twisted chain of criminals, bent cops, and Japanese gangsters, but when someone fires a shotgun through his door, he realises he doesn't need supernatural powers to see how deadly the situation has become.
Katana-sharp humour and an endearingly irascible protagonist make Double Proof irresistibly entertaining. - Chris Brookmyre
