Author: paul2001sw-1 (paul2001sw@yahoo.co.uk) from Saffron Walden, UK

'Low Winter Sun' is an atmospheric, complex and exceptionally nasty crime thriller set in Edinburgh, with a story centred on no less than three rampaging policemen. Agenw is perhaps a sanest, a man chasing his disappeared girlfriend and furious with Geddes, who has tricked him into murdering McGann. McGann, coke-fuelled and corrupt, is the out-of-control vacuum at the heart of the tale, dead when the story begins; while Geddes, his former partner, slowly self-destructs under the pressure of the vice in which he has become trapped. Lacking the stagy melodrama of most similar material, this is above average fare: even so, one can't help but feel that a story that features three (possibly four) murders and a suicide, as well as numerous lesser crimes, is just a little bit over the top. One to watch shivering on a cold winter's night.
