Last Shot is a memoir, which, by its very definition, is a historical account written from the personal knowledge of the subject writing it,' the publisher states. Two teenage boys stabbed to death in Bristol 'were in the wrong place at the wrong time': Horrified locals.

The way I see it, it's his story, he's the one who lived it - who wants to get in the way of a great scottish yarn. Attracted to the dynamic and competitive kitchens of London, he worked alongside top chefs like Marco Pierre White, Gordon Ramsay and David Cavalier.
