Beyond the Rage - Softcover
Even though he's a successful criminal, Glasgow villain Kenny O'Neill is angry. Not only has his high-class escort girlfriend just been attacked, but his father is reaching out to him from the past despite abandoning Kenny as a child after his mother's suicide. Kenny is now on a dual mission to hunt down his girl's attacker and find out the truth about his father... but instead he unravels disturbing family secrets and finds that revenge is not always sweet. An intelligent, violent thriller shot through with dark humour, Beyond the Rage enthralls and disturbs in equal measure. With an intricate plot, all-too-believable characters, an undeniably Scottish atmosphere and perfectly pitched dialogue, this is a masterclass in psychological crime fiction writing.

Michael J Malone is the author of two crime novels: Blood Tears, which won the Pitlochry Prize from the Scottish Association of Writers; and A Taste for Malice. Both were hits with crime critics and fans alike. His thriller The Guillotine Choice is the amazing true story of an innocent man's time in the notorious Devil's Island penal colony.
