The body of a prostitute is found at Glasgow's Queen Street Station, her hands, pointing towards her feet, placed as if in prayer, a small flower pressed between the palms. Psychologist Solomon Brightman is called to assist DCI Lorimer in the murder hunt, with the hope that his lateral thinking will shine a light on the case from a different angle. But before any conclusions can be drawn, the body of a nurse is discovered at The Grange, a private clinic. Aside from the careful arrangement of the corpses, there is no obvious connection between the victims; Lorimer and Solomon are still very much in the dark. Then a third body turns up, and it seems increasingly clear that they have a serial killer on their hands.

A taut, suspense-filled thriller, A Small Weeping takes the reader on a gripping journey from the inner city to the wilds of the Outer Hebrides, and deep into the darkest depths of human nature.

I have just discovered "a small weeping" by Alex Gray- absolutely brilliant, and now look forward to further books by this author.
I am often accused of reading for England - now Scotland as well !! and my wife has threatened to have books surgically removed from my grasp . My favourite authors include the three Ian's - Rankin, Banks and McEwan, as well as Robert Goddard, and Alex Gray is now on my list.
Keep up the good work.
