Family Man: The Third Book of Aldo

Adolfo Ali makes his long-awaited return in this fast-moving and unpredictable third outing. Complex anti-hero, Aldo, is the de facto head of Edinburgh’s most powerful crime family. But being a crime boss isn’t what it used to be. Not only does Aldo need to balance his duties running his crew of killers and psychotic hitmen, but he also needs to hope and pray that one or two secrets stay dead and buried. 

As rival criminal organisations start threatening his authority on the Scottish capital’s streets, Aldo is tested like never before. 

At home, Aldo shows his softer side, devoted to his partner Roxy and committed to being a loving dad to Jennifer—and to Bruce the Staffy, his heir apparent. 

Can Aldo retain control of Edinburgh’s mean streets and still be a ‘family man’? 

Family Man, The Third Book of Aldo, introduces a whole host of new characters into the ‘Aldo universe’, and delivers a heart-pounding rollercoaster of emotions, and its fair share of laugh-out-loud moments.

‘It’s one thing to have an ear for the way people speak, quite another to render it authentically on the page. This is where this writer comes into his own.’
