Parks is a significant talent. Such a picture he paints with his pitch perfect Glasgow dialog. His protagonist Harry McCoy is quick-witted, clever, imperfect, vulnerable and wonderfully engaging. And McCoy’s running buddy named – wait for it – Watson is equally entertaining. Parks is giving us inventive and profound Noir fiction. It’s violent. It’s noir. It’s addictive. It’s wonderful stuff.

This is well paced and has some great characters that you can understand and get involved with. The descriptions of Glasgow in the 70’s make you feel like you’re there and pacing is fast with some nice twists - some believeable, some not so much. All in all, a very entertaining book. The only complaint is the repetitive use of the word wee. It was a quaint touch at first, but maybe another term here or there?

February’s Son is the second book in the Harry McCoy series by British author, Alan Parks. It’s February 1973 and Harry is just back at the Glasgow Police Force after a three-week break that included compulsory visits to the Police psychologist. But straight off, DCI Murray has him at a bloody and brutal murder scene: a football star has been drugged and mutilated and left on the roof of a building under construction.The victim’s prospective father-in-law, a Glasgow crime figure, is certain it has been done by the strong arm he used to employ, but this dangerous man has gone into hiding. The fiancée seems more annoyed than in grief, and quite certain she is in no danger herself. But more disfigured bodies turn up (nasty words carved in flesh and Mandrax seem to be a common feature), and the murderer proves difficult to track down, managing to slip away from Police more than once.Harry, meanwhile, is distracted by the suicide death, in a chapel, of a destitute alcoholic. Harry seems to have a special rapport with Glasgow’s homeless, but this time, there’s something more, and soon he’s on a violent revenge mission with his criminal pal, Stevie Cooper. But Harry’s a cop: is this a line he’s crossing?Against the background of a battle for control of Glasgow’s criminal elements, this fast-paced thriller includes paedophiles, lobotomies, and a vicious psychopath, as it races towards a nail-biting climax. Several characters require stitches on multiple occasions. Harry still indulges heavily in alcohol, tobacco and drugs, and barely hesitates before using violence, but he does seem to be saving intimacies for Susan. And does his chosen career really fit well with a blood phobia?There is some good detective work achieved and young Wattie does something quite heroic. While there are no major spoilers for the first book in the series, Bloody January, and this one can stand alone, the first book does give some useful background on the characters and their history. Again, the prolific use of expletives may offend some readers, but there’s a bit of black humour in the banter. Excellent Scottish Noir.This unbiased review is from an uncorrected proof copy provided by Allen & Unwin

Bloody January from Alan Parks was one of my favourite books of 2018 and I was curious to see if the second in a planned 12 book series measured up. I'm happy to report it does.70s Glasgow, a murdered professional footballer - not just murdered but mutilated into the bargain and one with links to a heavy hitter criminal boss, Jake Scobie. Celtic player Charlie Jackson was engaged to Scobie's daughter and it looks like one of Scobie's close confidants and enforcers, Kevin Connolly has done the deed. Apparently Connolly had a thing for Elaine Scobie.Simples then - find Connolly and close the case. If only.Mental illness, a struck off doctor with a penchant for conducting lobotomies, unrequited love, a falling out of criminals, a picture in a paper, a suicide, a terminal illness, an obstructive lawyer, ghosts from the past, an escalation, a river rescue, family friction, an insider takeover (?), manipulation and scheming, more victims, a peeping Tom act, a hotel raid, a disturbing look inside a diseased mind, a kicking with the promise of more, some plans for retribution, a childhood bond, a busy reporter, a poorly mother, dabbling with drugs, revenge goes awry, an escalation, a funeral, a plan of action, a few bevvies, a few pies and some tension between old friends, shooting for the stars, a lucky escape, a guilty conscience and a tearful confession, and a helluva lot more going on here.Harsh, brutal, graphic and enlightening. There's a lot of pain in this book and a lot of ghosts that get exorcised, particularly for our main character, Harry McCoy in a story strand that runs tangentially to our main aim of capturing our very obvious villain, Kevin Connolly. All the bits and bobs of the tale overlap and entwine and eventually get wrapped up with consummate skill and very satisfactorily too.I loved the main character Harry. Parks makes us care about him and we feel his pain and the suffering the weight of his memories causes him. His casual drug use and over indulgence on occassions with alcohol is understandable and cathartic for him in many respects. That he is an honest copper mostly, is a testament to his strength and resilience. I do like the loyalty to and the interactions with childhood friend and up-and-coming major villain Stevie Cooper. I enjoy his banter with young Wattie and their partnership with Wattie feeding off the old pro McCoy and having his eyes opened to the sights and perils of big city Glasgow. I like the fact McCoy has a boss, Murray who has his back.Looking forward to book three, whenever that drops. 2020 - hurry up!4.5 from 5Read in February, 2019Published - 2019Page count - 368Source - review copy from publisher CanongateFormat - paperback
