When three young women are discovered strangled and mutilated in Glasgow park it is up to DCI Lorimer to find their killer. Frustrated by a lack of progress in the investigation, Lorimer is forced to enlist the services of Dr Solomon Brightman, psychologist and criminal profiler. Together they form an uneasy alliance. But when a homeless man is brought in for questioning the investigation takes a bizarre turn.
In language that is highly visual and powerfully evocative, Glasgow's brooding architecture itself becomes an integral part of the plot: the deep-rooted duality in the city of culture provides the perfect backdrop for Alex Gray's tale of contemporary crime and retribution.
'Never Somewhere Else' leads the reader through the streets, parks and art galleries of Glasgow on a compelling journey of discovery that never fails to keep the pages turning.
