Never Somewhere Else is a mystery novel in the DSI William Lorimer series by author Alex Gray.
Three young women found strangled and mutilated in a Glasgow park, DCI Lorimer must find their killers. As the investigation failed to make progress, Lorimer was forced to enlist the services of Dr. Solomon Brightman, a psychologist and criminal profiling specialist. Together they form an uneasy alliance. When a homeless man is brought in for questioning, the investigation takes a strange turn. It won’t be long before Lorimer has to scratch the surface of Glasgow’s glossy art world and reveal the dark layers hidden beneath….

DCI Lorimer has taken on a case involving three young women who are discovered strangled and scalped and left in a Glasgow Park. He turns to Dr. Solomon Brightman, a psychologist and criminal profiler, much against his wishes. He thinks that Dr. Solomon is almost too eager to become involved in these murders.

These are gruesome murders, with the antagonist keeping the scalps as trophies, reminiscent of the 1800 battles of the Native Americans.

It takes a homeless man to find the connections among the victims, and Dr. Brightman finds himself lucky to have survived an assault with his hair intact. When a news reporter and his photographer start turning up and releasing confidential information, DCI Lorimer goes ballistic and more people die.

The action was a bit slow, but steady, in the very beginning, but picked up rapidly the more I read. I particularly enjoy new series and learning about all the major characters. I think the back stories make for great reading .. and this one met all my expectations.
