Bad Attitudes is a wickedly dark tale of Scottish council housing and murder. This novella boasts a missing person, a lethally nosy neighbour, an extra-marital affair, a lusty councillor and a new housing law for tinkers. Who but Agnes Owens could concoct such a delicious brew of dour hilarity.

Published to celebrate Agnes Owens' centenary year in 2026.
