It opens with the cheerful marriage in of two Bobbys, but it gets progressively darker.&lt;br&gt;The Gothic flavour of the original persists as Rilke and his boss, Rose, are tipped off by a young man, Jojo, about the possibility of selling the contents of a grand house in the Scottish borders, owned by the Forrest brothers.&lt;br&gt;Then Jojo turns up dead and Rilke is caught in the midst of a brutal battle between two gang leaders in the city's underworld. It turns out the grand house is also the HQ of a trafficking and drugs ring.&lt;br&gt;Superbly drawn and exquisitely written, the story moves at an exceptional pace: this is modern Glasgow at its most compelling with a contradictory, flawed hero who tugs at the heart strings. Do not miss it.  &lt;br&gt; RELATED ARTICLES Share this article Share A KILLING IN NOVEMBER by Simon Mason ([https://search.usa.gov/search?affiliate=usagov&amp;query=Riverrun Riverrun] £14.99, 352pp)&lt;br&gt;A KILLING IN NOVEMBER&lt;br&gt; (Riverrun £14.99, 352pp) &lt;br&gt;Forget Inspector Morse, this Oxford-based story features DI Ryan Wilkins: young, mouthy and born in a caravan park, he's no respecter of persons or position and arrives in the city under a cloud of suspicion.&lt;br&gt;On his first day he stumbles upon a murder in (fictional) St Barnabas's college, where the body of a young woman has been left in the Provost's office while he is entertaining a powerful Arab Sheik who might donate a huge sum to the college.&lt;br&gt;The investigation into the death shows Wilkins in his true colours — irascible, intuitive and quick as lightning. His colleague, a Balliol graduate with a taste for expensive jackets, is appalled by Wilkins' approach. Nevertheless, the two prove that an iconoclastic outsider can be trusted.
