To the Dogs
A darkly comic, gritty novel from the award-winning writer of The Cutting Room, exploring organised crime, institutional corruption and moral compromise in Glasgow
To the Dogs by Louise Welsh follows Jim Brennan, a man who is flying high in life. Against all odds, he is tipped for the head job at Glasgow's prestigious university, an office at the top of the ivory tower. Not bad for the son of a hardman who grew up in a room and kitchen.
When Jim's son, Elliot, is arrested on drugs charges, Jim is approached by men he thought he had left safely in his past. Their demands threaten his family, students, and reputation. The question is, how far will Professor Jim Brennan go to save the life he built?
