Crime and thrillers: three for March Robert Dex
Edge of the Grave by Robbie Morrison
With around three decades writing comics including Batman and Judge Dredd behind him, Robbie Morrison makes his debut as a novelist with a bang – or should that be a kapow?
His dark historical thriller begins with a horrific domestic murder in 1932 Glasgow before slowly working its way into something even worse.
Along the way, Morrison sketches out a familiar picture of the No Mean City of urban legend - all sectarian strife and striking shipyard workers while razor gangs fight it out in tenements and closes.

Exit by Belinda Bauer
Death shouldn t be funny but in this novel, there s definitely more than a wry look thrown in its direction. Step forward the Exiteers, a group dedicated to keeping a dying person company as they take their final breath. Felix Pink, a pensioner and widow who misses his wife and son dearly, is one such Exiteer and he s on a normal job. But this standard job is anything but and within a few moments, Felix is doing things he never thought imaginable. He has to figure out what is really going on, what happened at his last job, as well as stay one step ahead of the long arm of the law. It s a quirky read but wholeheartedly enjoyable. At first you think it s in bad taste to be chuckling at some of the writing, given the plot, but it feels like life is being breathed into a genre.
