angela5, have you read She was aye workin' ?- it's a similar book, by the same publisher (White Cockade) about tenement life in Glasgow and Edinburgh.
armanisgirl, if you enjoy Patricia Cornwell's books, you could check out Kathy Reichs and Linda Fairstein. I read a lot of crime (fiction) and I like their books -good plots and characters, some gore, but not too much
