Saviors: Two Novels
Autor Malcolm MacKayen Limba Engleză Paperback – 12 aug 2019
Darian
Ross
is
a
young
PI
struggling
against
his
family
legacy
(father
in
prison,
criminal
brother)
in
the
independent
kingdom
of
Scotland.
In
earlier
centuries,
when
the
Scottish
empire
stretched
all
the
way
to
Central
America,
Darian's
home
city
was
one
of
the
country's
busiest
trading
ports.
But
Scotland
is
not
what
it
was,
and
the
docks
of
Challaid
are
almost
silent.
The
networks
of
power
and
corruption
are
all
that
survive
of
Challaid's
glorious
past.
InIn
the
Cage
Where
Your
Saviors
Hide,
Darian
takes
the
case
of
the
fascinating
Maeve
Campbell:
her
partner
has
been
stabbed.
The
police
are
not
very
curious
about
the
death
of
a
man
who
laundered
money
for
criminals,
but
Darian's
innate
sense
of
justice
and
his
fascination
with
Maeve
irrevocably
draw
him
into
her
world,
where
no
one
can
be
trusted.
InA
Line
of
Forgotten
Blood,
Police
Constable
Vinny
Reno--both
a
friend
and
a
valuable
contact
for
Darian's
unlicensed
PI
firm--is
desperate
for
help
in
finding
his
missing
ex-wife,
and
clearing
his
own
name.
A
thread
of
a
clue
leads
to
one
of
Challaid's
oldest,
wealthiest
banking
families,
the
Sutherlands.
But
pulling
one
thread
can
unravel
a
whole
tapestry,
and
soon
things
are
moving
too
fast
for
even
the
most
powerful
people
to
control.

ACCLAIM
FOR
MALCOLM
MACKAY
"Don't pick up a Mackay book unless you've got spare time. They're habit-forming."—Janet Maslin,New York Times
"Contemporary noir doesn't boast a more elegant stylist than Mackay. Even in evoking a world of scuzziness, he makes the lure of redemption sing."—Lloyd Sachs,Chicago Tribune
"It is a joy to wallow in the muck with Mackay, who writes in a bold style that reflects confidence rather than bravado, occasionally breaking up the tension with a wry joke."—Marilyn Stasio,The New York Times Book Review
"The [Glasgow] trilogy was a bravura performance, and one had every reason to expect that Mackay would do more with such rich material. That expectation has now been met, and rousingly so."—Dennis Drabelle,The Washington Post
