An Evening With Louise Welsh - The Second Cut

Waterstones Sauchiehall Street are pleased to be welcoming back Glasgow's own award winning author Louise Welsh as she discusses her latest book, The Second Cut!

An Evening With Louise Welsh - The Second Cut

About An Evening With Louise Welsh - The Second Cut

A stylish, atmospheric detective story with shades of the Gothic – from the author of the award-winning cult classic The Cutting Room.

Auctioneer Rilke has been trying to stay out of trouble, keeping his life more or less respectable. Business has been slow at Bowery Auctions, so when an old friend, Jojo, gives Rilke a tip-off for a house clearance, life seems to be looking up. The next day Jojo washes up dead.

Jojo liked Grindr hook-ups and recreational drugs – is that the reason the police won’t investigate? And if Rilke doesn’t find out what happened to Jojo, who will?

Thrilling and atmospheric, The Second Cut delves into the dark side of twenty-first century Glasgow. Twenty years on from his appearance in The Cutting Room, Rilke is still walking a moral tightrope between good and bad, saint and sinner.
