Life is tough for Adam, an 18-year-old orphan with learning difficulties. But after a day flipping burgers at work, there are always his favourite comics and the music of Queen to console him. And though his sister, Jude, may weep from the frustration of trying to keep him grounded, she'll always be there for him, won't she?
By day, Charlie Bain is the school's most inspiring teacher. By night he prowls the stylish bars of Glasgow seducing women.

One of Scotland's dazzling young writing talents tackles the modern phenomenon of sex addiction. Dark, funny and deliciously erotic, DEATH OF A LADIES' MAN is an intense portrait of male vanity, written with verve and emotional rawness.
