I think Complicity somebody lent me at university that and I thought that was fantastic. Read that again and again.
Complicity (1993)
COMPLICITY n. 1. the fact of being an accomplice, esp. in a criminal act. A few spliffs, a spot of mild S&M, phone through the copy for tomorrow's front page, catch up with the latest from your mystery source - could be big, could be very big - in fact, just a regular day at the office for free-wheeling, substance-abusing Cameron Colley, a fully paid-up Gonzo hack on an Edinburgh newspaper. The source is pretty thin, but Cameron senses a scoop and checks out a series of bizarre deaths from a few years ago - only to find that the police are checking out a series of bizarre deaths that are happening right now. And Cameron just might know more about it than he'd care to admit ...Involvement; connection; liability - Complicity is a stunting exploration of the morality of greed, corruption and violence, venturing fearlessly into the darker recesses of human purpose.

The reason I didn't love it, though, was actually more to do with the prose and the writing style, which I found to be very weak. I is a very offensive book, but I was less so offended by the book and more so regretting that I didn't feel like the prose really held up and made the story as strong as it could have been.
