A review by coffeecurls
To the Dogs by Louise Welsh, Louise Welsh
4.0
I love a good gritty crime thriller, and Louise Welsh delivers that in spades!
Once his son ends up in custody for drug charges, Jim Brennan, an esteemed Professor from Glasgow University has some stark choices to make not least of which - can he save his son without losing himself.
Somewhat inevitably, Jim soon finds that the murky past he tried to shrug off and leave behind is snapping at his heels and he has a difficult time attempting to balance all of the aspects of his life as they threaten to crash into each other.
As if the issues with his son weren't enough there are also some big politically driven issues at the University and poor Jim seems to be getting it from all sides as the story unfolds.
The author has created and dark and dangerous world within these pages and I really enjoyed this thriller.
