'An amazingly accomplished debut' - The Times, Crime Book of the Month 'Shattered from staying up until the daft hours finishing this. Loved it... A serious talent' - Kevin Bridges, author of The Black Dog 'A manic tale of blood and suds told with laconic humour and warmly engaging characterisation. Callum McSorley is definitely a talent to watch. I knew within a page that I was in good hands' - Chris Brookmyre 'A wonderfully rich and funny new voice in Scottish crime. McSorley has created characters you invest in and plot that keeps you hooked right from the start' - McIlvanney Prize judges 'An absolute knockout of a debut! Pitch-dark and yet dripping with warmth, Squeaky Clean is a truly fresh take on the classic thriller. Packed with brilliantly drawn characters, laugh-out-loud humour, and lots of blood - what's not to love? Can't wait to see what my new favourite detective does next.' - Caz Frear, author of Sweet Little Lies
