Strange Loyalties by William Mcilvanney
After his brother dies stepping out in front of a car, Jack Laidlaw uses his skills as a detective to find out why. With corrosive wit, Laidlaw relates an emotional quest through Glasgow's underworld, back home to Graithnock and into the past, discovering as much about himself as the beloved brother he has lost in a search which leads to a shattering climax.
