Tag – You’re Dead
By (author) Douglas Skelton
Sam the butcher is missing, and maverick investigator Dominic Queste is on the case. But it’s not because he misses Sam’s prize-winning steak pies…A dangerous man has arrived in Glasgow. He’s no small-town crook, and he’s leaving a trail of disturbing clues across the city, starting with the missing cousin of Queste’s new lover. Amidst a twisted game of cat and mouse, suspicious coppers and a seemingly random burglary at the judge’s house, Queste has to keep his wits about him. Or he might just find himself on the butcher’s block.
Reviews of Tag – You’re Dead
Praise for the first Dominic Queste book, The Dead Don't Boogie: ""A heady mixture of hardboiled detective novel and super-sharp black humour and it's a winning combination that will keep you engaged throughout."" – Crime Fiction Lover. ""Queste can be relied on to have a darkly witty take on his predicament."" – Sunday Times Crime Club. ""A great read that draws you in and keeps you hooked until it spits you out, 235 extremely enjoyable pages later… satisfying and convincing, and unexpected."" – Undiscovered Scotland. ""The plot rattles along at break-neck speed. This is modern pulp fiction at its best… fast-paced and flippant."" – Alistair Braidwood, Scots Whay Hae. ""Absolutely brilliant. A quick-witted and vastly entertaining novel that takes Skelton into the crime fiction big league."" – Alex Gray. ""A white-knuckle, wisecracking thrill-ride."" – Caro Ramsay.
