Pretty sure this was originally titled SCOTTISH PSYCHO but was changed by the editor. Anyway, another masterpiece of fucked-uppery.
This has echoes of Martin Amis's "Money" in it's presentation of a truly vile lead character: Bruce Robertson, is a scheming,racist, sexist and bigoted Detective Sergeant, investigating the murder of a black man outside a nightclub. Not that he has much time for solving crime; the constant bouts of: heavy drinking, porn, cocaine abuse, skiving work and his serial philandering occupy most of this. But, this is Welsh and you wouldn't expect deities and social heirs and graces.

Read this if you have a sense of humour and a strong stomach.
A blueprint for everyone who hates their job.
