Meantime follows Felix McAveety, a full-time addict whose best friend is found murdered in a Glasgow park, leaving him as the police's most convenient suspect. In a fog of intoxication and paranoia, Felix sets out to clear his name, enlisting the help of an ageing former Detective Inspector turned crime novelist and a chaotic friend. Their search for the truth becomes an exhilarating and frequently laugh-out-loud race through the murkier edges of contemporary Scotland, as events rapidly spiral out of control around him.
