Detective Inspector Ray Lennox has fled to Miami to escape the aftermath of a mental breakdown induced by occupational stress and cocaine abuse, and a harrowing child-sex murder case back in Edinburgh.

In 'Rattlesnakes', three young Americans find themselves lost in the desert, held captive by armed Mexicans; an ex-jockey and table-football star of Cowdenbeath takes on the charms of Jenni Cahill and her remarkable jodhpurs...

At Edinburgh's Department of Environmental Health, hard-drinking, womanising officer Danny Skinner wants to uncover secrets: 'the bedroom secrets of the master chefs', secrets he believes might just help him understand his self-destructive impulses.

A story of four boys growing up in the Edinburgh schemes, and about the loyalties, the experiences - and the secrets - that hold them together into their thirties. What binds the four of them is the friendship formed by the scheme, their school, and their ambition to escape from both; their loyalty fused in street morality.

Roy Strang is engaged in a strange quest in a surrealist South Africa. But behind this world lies another: the world of Roy's bizarre family, the Scottish housing scheme in which he grew up, his mundane job, a disastrous emigration to Africa, and his youthful life of brutality with a gang of soccer casuals.

This collection is made up of "The Granton Star Cause", "The Acid House" and "A Soft Touch". All three stories come from the badlands of the schemes of north Edinburgh and take us into a dark world of drugs, deviant sex and football hooliganism.

An original stage play from the author of "Trainspotting". Within the sound-proof walls of a recording studio a score is being settled. Two inner city low-lifes take the law into their own hands to satisfy their craving for fun, fear and a freakish sense of justic.

Rebecca Navarro, best-selling authoress of Regency romances, suffers a paralysing stroke. Assisted by her nurse, Rebecca plans her revenge on her unfaithful husband.

From Irvine Welsh's bestselling books come four brilliant plays: Trainspotting, Filth and Marabou Stork Nightmares (all adapted by Harry Gibson) and Ecstasy (adapted by Keith Wyatt).
