Short description: Nancy Kerr and boyfriend Tommy try to find out who’s been abducting sex workers and bring them to justice. To succeed, they must delve into the sordid side of the city that few people ever get to see.
✢ SYNOPSIS ✢
Huddled in a doorway, in a blonde wig, and my best Pretty Woman outfit, I'm already soaked to the skin. As downward spirals go, this was bad.
But I wasn’t here because I was reduced to turning tricks for a living. I was here to catch a killer…
Throwaways. That's the word they're using for the four Glasgow sex workers who've gone missing. But two people do care.
When Suzy Henderson is found dead in a landfill site, her eyes pecked out by crows, they find the finger of another missing woman wedged in her throat.
Nancy Kerr and Tommy McIntyre are on the case and they won’t stop until they find the missing women. But, how can they trust anyone when they can’t even trust each other?

Mallory never expected her summer to turn into a full-blown mystery. One moment, she and her best friend Max were climbing trees and dodging homework, and the next-they were unraveling a secret hidden in her own home. It all starts with a strange noise in the middle of the night, an object that vanishes without a trace, and a path that leads to nowhere. Then, there's Elliot-the new guy with a past he won't talk about. He's quiet, a little too mysterious, and just when Mallory starts trusting him, the clues point right to his doorstep. Can she believe him, or is he leading her straight into danger?

Someone who knows exactly what they've found. And they're willing to do anything to keep the truth buried. Time is running out. The thief isn't just invisible-they're always one step ahead.

No Reservations (A Romantic Comedy)
"Here's the thing though . . ." He trails off thoughtfully and then he looks straight at me. His eyes are steely and that makes me realise the fundamental difference between the young Ryan and this Ryan. He's hardened now. The sweet boy I once knew is probably still in there somewhere but life eventually got to him and he had to toughen up. "I need someone I can rely on. I don't want to take a person on who just decides it's too much hassle a few days or weeks in and just . . . Ghosts me." He finishes. There's a definite challenge there. He's not just talking about the job. He's getting a dig in there about the way I disappeared out of his life. As well as implying I'm generally unreliable . . . ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Iona Stewart is pretty sure she's having a premature midlife crisis. Recently made redundant, permanently unlucky in love, and back living with her parents, she's desperate for a change of scenery. So when an opportunity comes up to work in a hotel in the Highlands, it seems like fate has stepped in. The problem? Her new boss is Ryan Thorne. Her former friend. Her first crush. And the boy who broke her heart nearly 17 years ago. She had no intention of ever seeing him again after that night. And it seems he isn't that keen on having *her* around either.
