Someone Has To Do It

Get a rare insight into the world of Scotland’s worst criminals –gangsters, paedophiles, murderers – and THE TEN PERCENT who
have what it takes to take them down… even if it means stretching the limits of the law themselves.  

This is 'The truth. The Whole Truth. And Something Like The Truth'

"A hugely entertaining read".– Archie MacPherson, commentator and author.

THE TEN PERCENT

This memoir paints a vivid tale of Simon’s story. From his footie-filled childhood in the schemes of Glasgow, his first hand experiences of sectarianism in the 60s, and apprenticeship in the Clyde ship yards. Through turbulent and triumphant times as a rookie and young detective; to his demanding and dangerous days as a member of Glasgow’s Serious Crime Squad. In the elite Surveillance Unit and Drug Enforcement Team he gives the reader a unique glimpse into the day-to-day, raw reality of a Scottish police officer that is often hilarious, sometimes disturbing, and always entertaining.
