Final installment of Jas Anderson Thriller Trilogy
LOS ANGELES—February 11, 2020—ReQueered Tales is thrilled to restore the Jas Anderson Thriller Trilogy to circulation after an absence of 20 years.
Gay Tartan Noir trilogy set in the seamier side of Glasgow’s underbelly, Denistoun. Filled with local atmosphere, heart-pounding suspense and vividly drawn characters. Jas Anderson has been a gay cop, framed for murder and spent time in Barlinnie prison. Now he’s out and starting a new career as a local PI.
“This last volume of the Jas Anderson series was to my mind the best written of the three. I was shaken, delighted, disturbed, and dazzled by this book. I finished it and immediately started turned to the first page to start again.” – Andy Elias, Goodreads
Jas Anderson, now working as a private investigator, is hired by a victim’s mother to get answers from a police force that seems unable to help. He finds a clue that the police may have missed then washes his hands of the case. At home, he shares his apartment with “Stevie” McStay, Anderson’s former cellmate and new boyfriend, as well as Stevie’s often-visiting two young children. Out of the blue, a voice from Jas’ past asks for help with a personal matter and a police investigation. He soon finds himself stirring an explosive cocktail of police corruption, football fanaticism, sectarianism, and murder, while … house hunting. Then the gay bashings begin again and suspicion falls close to home.
“Much of the first third of the novel is pretty much character development – the relationship between gay Jas and former gay-basher Stevie. There are a lot of threads dangled out there, and in good mystery writer fashion, Dickson slowly reveals more of the pattern as threads intersect. The time invested here pays off well, for as the book goes on, and rushes towards its climax, you begin to care very much about what happens to various characters. This is what sets the Jas Anderson novels apart with other very good mystery writers – the ability to create strong characters that you come to care about.” – JJ Kwashnak, Amazon Reviewer
Scotland’s Gay Times put it succinctly: “Intricate plots which combine elements of the hard-boiled and the intensely erotic.”
Originally published in 2002, this new edition includes a 2020 foreword by the author.
