The Long Midnight of Barney Thomson by Douglas Lindsay

The Long Midnight of Barney Thomson

Douglas Lindsay

A serial killer novel with a twist. Much black humour with some scenes bordering on farce. Read it with a Scottish accent to make the most of it!

Extract
As the day had worn on, the horror of manhandling corpses has slowly faded, and by now he is almost treating them like any other pile of garbage .... Now he has to transfer the weight of the package until it topples over, while at the same time keeping his weight far enough back to stop it dragging the small boat underwater. And with almost consummate professionalism, he fails to do it.
