She can pierce the toughest facade, asking questions that get to the heart of the matter. But she knows she can play it “mumsy” when she needs to. She drinks too much coffee, and likes a Bacardi and Coke — though she tries not to drink because it makes her maudlin about her useless ex, Joe.Lola’s main rival in the force is Detective Sergeant Aidan Pierce, who seems hell-bent on sabotaging each case — and her career with it. He thinks he’s the next big thing, and is intensely frustrated that she got ‘his’ promotion. Carefully dressed in expensive Italian suits, he’s a snob, very good looking and vain with it. He’s his own worst enemy, and at some point, Lola will have to confront him.Luckily, Lola has Detective Constable Kirstie Campbell to back her up. Kirstie is committed to the job, and plays by the book.THE SETTINGLocated on the banks of the River Clyde, Glasgow is a city of many different faces, from gritty and unsettling, to modern and slick.
