Thriller Psychological
A standalone psychological thriller from the acclaimed
author of the Alex Morrow novels that exposes the dark
hearts of the guilty...and the innocent. William Watt's wife, daughter, and sister-in-law are
dead, slaughtered in their own home in a brutal crime that
scandalized Glasgow. Despite an ironclad alibi, police zero
in on Watt as the primary suspect, but he maintains his
innocence. Distraught and desperate to clear his name, Watt
puts out a bounty for information that will lead him to the
real killer. Peter Manuel claims he knows the truth that will set Watt
free and has information that only the killer would know. It
won't come cheap. Manuel is an infamous career criminal, a
degenerate liar who can't be trusted and will say, or do,
anything to make a buck. But Manuel has something that Watt wants, which makes him
the perfect target for Manuel's consummate con. Watt agrees
to sit down with Manuel and before they know it, one drink
has turned into an epic, forgotten night of carousing across
the city's bars and clubs that exposes the thin line between
a good yarn and the truth. The next time the unlikely pair meets is across the witness
stand in court--where Manuel is on trial for the murder of
Watt's family. Manuel calls Watt to the stand to testify
about the long, shady night they shared together. And the
shocking testimony that Manuel coaxes out of Watt threatens
to expose the dark hearts of the guilty...and the innocent. Based on true events, THE LONG DROP is an explosive,
unsettling novel about guilt, innocence and the power of a
good story to hide the difference.
