Europa World Noir Giveaway: Two New Crime Titles, Laidlaw and The Cemetery of Swallows

Thanks to Europa Editions, I have two finished copies of some new books in their series of World Noir.

From Scotland, they've reprinted William McIlvanney's Laidlaw, a classic in Scottish noir from the 1970's.  A murder must be solved despite close families that want to exert their own revenge aside from the investigation by the police.  This is part of a trilogy that features Laidlaw, a brooding detective that no one in the force likes.  Review coming soon, so read it now and offer me your two cents:

The other title is The Cemetery of Swallows by an author with the pseudonym Mallock.  Another series with another moody protagonist, this features a bizarre murder that crisscrosses the world.
