Bodies are piling up with grisly messages carved into their chests. Rival gangs are competing for control of Glasgow's underworld and it seems that Cooper, McCoy's oldest friend, is caught up in it all. Detective Harry McCoy's first day back at work couldn't have gone worse. New drugs have arrived in Glasgow, and they've brought a different kind of violence to the broken city. The law of the street is changing and now demons from McCoy's past are coming back to haunt him. But vengeance always carries a price, and it could cost McCoy more than he ever imagined. The waters of Glasgow corruption are creeping higher, as the wealthy and dangerous play for power. And the city's killer continues his dark mission. Can McCoy keep his head up for long enough to solve the case? Bruised and battered from the events of Bloody January, McCoy returns for a breathless ride through the ruthless world of 1970s Glasgow.

The second book in the Harry McCoy thriller series, February's Son felt dated and near on impossible to follow. I hadn't read the first book in this series and the characters weren't introduced well enough for me to get a good idea of who they were and how they fitted into the story. The plot was uninteresting and the pace was slow going; there were a few murders that didn't really shock me, with some dull dialogue and filler content in between. The book did pick up a bit towards the middle and then again in the final 50 pages but for the most part, it was a chore to read and I had to force myself to keep turning the pages. I don't feel that this book can be read as a standalone novel, but it may be of interest to those who enjoyed the first book in the series. I usually enjoy crime fiction but I personally didn't like any aspect of this book and I won't be seeking out the first one in the series.
I received a free ARC of this book from the publisher.
