CHARLIE’S PROMISE
Charlie Miller, a Glasgow city centre police Detective Sergeant, is beset with a drink problem and scorned by his supervisors. Tasked the most menial inquiries to investigate, an acute shortage of manpower thrusts Charlie, suddenly and with extreme reluctance, into investigating the death in a fire of an unidentified 14 year old girl.
This death and the jibes of his peers, force Charlie to revaluate his life and investigatory skills. Adding to Charlie’s problems, he is obliged to work with a female Counter Terrorism officer when it is discovered the girls family is identified as having connections with Irish extremists.
To compound his problems and running parallel with Charlie’s inquiry is the city centre hunt for a serial sex attacker, a murder inquiry and an apparently serious attack on an elderly priest - are any or all of these incidents connected and will Charlie stay sober long enough to find out?
