Story
La vita è una roulette russa e a volte fa davvero schifo. Lo sa bene Jack Laidlaw, detective della polizia di Glasgow. Nella sua carriera ne ha viste tante, ma nessuno è mai pronto quando la cattiva sorte gli si accanisce contro. Proprio mentre il lavoro vacilla, il matrimonio è ormai finito e lui ha più che mai paura di affondare, un uomo muore. Una morte immeritata, ingiusta e senza senso come tante altre, ma stavolta ancora più difficile da accettare. Perché Laidlaw conosce bene l'uomo in questione: è Scott, suo fratello.

Story
Nel pronto soccorso del Victoria infirmary di Glasgow, i medici hanno fretta. Ci sono malati di ogni genere, chi ha tempo di occuparsi dell'agonia di un barbone alcolizzato? Ma Eck Adamson continua a ripetere il nome dell'ispettore Jack Laidlaw, finché qualcuno si decide a dargli retta. Le ultime parole di Eck, così come il biglietto che mette in mano all'ispettore giunto al suo capezzale, sembrano il delirio di un moribondo, ma sono più che sufficienti per solleticare il fiuto investigativo e il senso di giustizia di Laidlaw, esacerbati dall'indifferenza generale.

Story
Eccentrico, taciturno, pensatore di paradossi, amante del whisky e delle belle donne, ma anche di T.S. Eliot e di Camus: è Jack Laidlaw, ispettore della polizia di Glasgow. Animato da un rigoroso ideale di giustizia che lo porta ad agire secondo un codice morale tutto suo, Laidlaw è un battitore libero: si muove nelle squallide periferie di Glasgow, intrattiene rapporti fin troppo stretti con i gangster locali e si sente a casa là dove nessun poliziotto osa mettere piede. Quando la diciottenne Jennifer Lawson viene assassinata, Laidlaw è senz’altro il più adatto a intervenire.

Story
William McIlvanney changed the face of crime fiction when he created DI Laidlaw, the original brooding Glasgow cop. He wrote three Laidlaw books and, as recently discovered, left one handwritten manuscript tantalisingly unfinished when he passed away in December 2015. In the early 1980s one young fan, Ian Rankin, took Laidlaw as inspiration for his own detective, John Rebus. Now, Rankin is back to finish what McIlvanney started. The Dark Remains, the story of Laidlaw's first case, is written by William McIlvanney and Ian Rankin.
