Read by Enzo: Set in Glasgow. A young girl has taken over her uncle's private detective agency. Procedural crime novel but not not the normal full on crime procedural. I loved the language and the setting, the authentic voice and the different culture. Very enjoyable.

When private investigator Jasmine Sharp is hired to find Tessa Garrion, a young woman who has vanished without trace, it becomes increasingly clear that there are those who want her to stay that way. What begins as a simple search awakens ...
For me, Brookmyre has jet to write a bad story. Ok, not great literature, but wonderful characters, fantastic story, at times witty, insightful and thoughtful. Easy fun books to read.
