Synopsis
I felt, as in Stieg Larsson’s novels, the visceral satisfaction of seeing justice meted out to the abusers of women. MN Seattle
The truth won’t set her free
Investigative Journalist Eilidh Duncan is on the treacherous, twisting trail of organised fraud and deception. The trail leads her to the dark heart of The UK Establishment where she exposes a business-like operation built on greed, police corruption, the abuse of power and ‘closed-ranks’ disinterest. What's more, they hate exposure.
And, when she gets too close?
Besides, if they don’t want the light of publicity, they can easily fix that. In fact, press them hard enough and they’ll hurt you. And so, a nightmare begins for Eilidh as, just when she completes her dossier, she is taken.
A knight in slightly battered armour
Relaxed and unsuspecting, big brother Sam heads for London. Danger closes as fast as the express train taking him to London. He investigates using skills he learned as an intelligence operative. All hell breaks loose as he plummets into a malicious criminal web of confusion, betrayal and stunning violence.
Angels Cut is a roller-coaster ride
Angels Cut is Scottish crime and mystery writing on the big stage with an international dimension. Likewise, if you enjoy a thoughtful plot, ferocious action, and characters you’ll come to care about.
Angels Cut starts like a British detective thriller and widens into breathtaking conflict. Mega-crime, political conspiracy and the cruel realities of high-level corruption and cover-up means danger.
The chips are down
In a desperate race to save Eilidh, Sam must use all his nous, backed by his wily special-forces minder, Tonka. When it gets to the wire, lives depend on the answer to a simple question … has Sam still got what it takes?

À propos de l'auteur
Hi, I’m Mac Logan. Thanks for your interest in me and my work.
Corruption, Crime and Establishment mischief
Short of spending a lifetime in jail, a vengeance trail of murder and mayhem has few acceptable alternatives. Writing is a safe substitute.
Sad to say, the pursuit of evil people may end in tragedy for both sides of an investigation. Tears may trickle down my cheeks, as I write, because my world as a writer is real to me.
Crime fiction provides a means of pursuing nasty people with satisfying, imaginative robustness. My thrillers offer a sense of recourse against corrupt people and cadres who screw us and steal our money.
Pay back?
Even though such people hurt me in the past, I wish them no harm. In fact, at one level I’m grateful to such deceivers for providing, as they do, the basis of The Angels’ Share series. It’s good to have a solid foundation for fiction: rooted in grievance and amplified by a surging (if somewhat graphic) imagination.
Personal
I love family, cooking, good company, banter, sport, fun, and an occasional drop of ‘The Cratur’. I live in the beautiful East Neuk of Fife, Scotland.
Prose, poetry and all that
Writing is part of me. It took me many years to admit I’m a poet. Could it be a man thing? My efforts started in childhood, ebbing and flowing until the present day.
It seems I’m approaching 150 blogs … can I be that old?
Articles and stuff
With many articles published, often on business and the human side of work, I changed direction a few years back. Tired of the dry-stuff, my muse hauled me into writing fiction, non-fiction and poetry.
As an author who aims to entertain, I’m eager for feedback. Your views on any aspect of my work are important to me. Please do get in touch.
I’m a Member of the Society of Authors and the Crime Writers Association.
I'm Chair of the Colinsburgh Galloway Library Trust in the East Neuk of Fife, Scotland. We aim to build:
“A welcoming, innovative library that meets the needs and aspirations of all members of our community irrespective of age, background, interests and needs. We extend a warm welcome is to visitors.”
