The Necessary Death of Lewis Winter

By Malcolm Mackay

Book Overview

The acclaimed thriller series debut delivers "a wholly believable and unnerving portrait of organized crime" in Glasgow (The Guardian, UK).

A twenty-nine-year-old man lives alone in his Glasgow flat. The telephone rings; a seemingly casual exchange conceals a job offer. The clues are there if you know to look for them. He is an expert. A loner. Freelance. Another job is another job, but what if this organization wants more?

A meeting at a club. An offer. A target: Lewis Winter, a necessary sacrifice that will be only the first step in an all-out war between crime syndicates the likes of which hasn't been seen for decades.

It's easy to kill a man. It's hard to kill a man well. People who do it well know this. People who do it badly find out the hard way. The hard way has consequences.
