Nominated for the 2017 McIlvanney Award for Scottish Crime Book of
the Year Two Women, One Quest, Grave Consequences. When Maggie
Laird's disgraced ex-cop husband suddenly dies, her humdrum
suburban life is turned upside down. With the bills mounting, she
takes on his struggling detective agency, enlisting the help of
neighbour `Big Wilma'. And so an unlikely partnership is born. But
the discovery of a crudely mutilated body soon raises the stakes...
and Maggie and Wilma are drawn into an unknown world of Aberdeen's
sink estates, clandestine childminding and dodgy dealers. Cross
Purpose is surprising, gritty, sometimes darkly humorous - a tale
combining police corruption, gangs and murder with a paean to
friendship, loyalty and how `women of a certain age' can beat the
odds.
