Somehow, I missed the Laidlaw trilogy when the books were first published and have only recently caught up with everyone else. It is probably as well that I didn’t read them back then because that was around the time I was beginning my own career as a crime writer. I think I might have thrown away my typewriter if I had read William McIlvanney’s work back then. He is a master of the craft.
