"In 1950s Glasgow, a household of women were found slaughtered in their beds. The father, William Watt, had a cast-iron alibi but police were convinced he was guilty. Determined to clear his name, Watt let it be known that he would pay for information. Step forward career criminal Peter Manuel, with compelling details only the murderer could know. Watt agreed to meet him. They spent twelve hours together, driving and drinking in Glasgow pubs and clubs ... The next time they met was in the High Court where Peter Manuel was defending himself against the murder charges"--Amazon.com.
