without giving too much away i am satisfied with the course of Irvine Welsh's Crime, just completed on our
newish
Kindle. Ray Lennox (with whom we first exchanged glances in Filth) with the Edinburgh Serious Crimes unit is recovering on vacation in Florida from the aftermath of a particularly wrenching child murder, when he finds himself pulled into a fresh horror of paedophilia and Crime. Welsh can be such a sadistic sod with his characters, following them to the end of his novels feels like watching a toddler careening around a room of hard cornered furniture…any minute now…..i can't look….
A serious Welsh fan am I, and though this doesn't reach the scabrous heights of some of his previous masterworks, it renders a solid performance and worth the time.
