A woman enters a Glasgow police station to report her son missing, but no record can be found of the boy. When Detective Harry McCoy, seconded from the cop shop across town, discovers the family is part of the cultish Church of Christ’s Suffering, he suspects there is more to Michael’s disappearance than meets the eye.

Meanwhile reports arrive of a string of poisonings of down-and-outs across the city. The dead are men who few barely notice, let alone care about – but, as McCoy is painfully aware, among this desperate community is his own father.

Even as McCoy searches for the missing boy, he must conceal from his colleagues the real reason for his presence – to investigate corruption in the station. Some folk pray for justice. Detective Harry McCoy hasn’t got time to wait.

Kritikerstimmen

"The final twist will make you shout"
"Beautifully crafted tartan noir, pinpoint precision of characterisation with storytelling par excellence. Crime writing of the highest order" (CARO RAMSAY)
"Fast-paced"
"Praise for the Harry McCoy series: Alan Parks recreates a world of urban blight and spiritual decay . . . a remarkable series that began with Bloody January. The novels, as someone once said, can be read in any order; the important thing is to read them all"
"The Harry McCoy books by the bold Alan Parks just get better and better. May God Forgive starts like a runaway train and just keeps going. If you’re not already reading these books, get onto them now" (LIAM McILVANNEY)
"May God Forgive is crime fiction which pulls no punches, powerfully told and, at times, heartbreakingly poignant. One of the crime novels of 2022" (MIKE RIPLEY)
"1970s Glasgow hewn from flesh and drawn in blood" (PETER MAY)
"This is Scottish noir at its gritty darkest . . . Behind his bloody-minded disrespect for his superiors and sardonic wit, McCoy is a tough and instinctive copper who learned his skills on the beat. A cracking read"
"An old-school cop novel written with wit and economy . . . Think McIlvanney or Get Carter" (IAN RANKIN)
"Bloody and brilliant. This smasher from Alan Parks is a reminder of how dark Glasgow used to be" (LOUISE WELSH)
