Shaun Hunter was supposed to escape Glasgow through intelligence, ambition and a future in science. His older brother, Garry, chose a different path-drink, drugs and petty crime.
When a respected teacher destroys Shaun's future, humiliation turns into obsession. Cut off from school and desperate to belong, Shaun moves into Garry's chaotic flat. Before long, his photographic memory and cold precision transform his brother's small-time criminal operation into something far more dangerous.
Then a brutal betrayal pushes the brothers across a line neither can uncross.
Shaun creates ELIM: a remotely controlled collar capable of turning ordinary people into terrified accomplices. Robbery becomes revenge, power becomes addiction, and the quiet younger brother begins to frighten even the man who introduced him to crime.
As their operation grows, loyalty fractures and the consequences close in. Garry must decide whether blood is enough to keep the brothers together-or whether stopping Shaun will cost him everything.
Crepitus is a dark and uncompromising Scottish crime thriller about brotherhood, revenge, addiction and the terrifying consequences of intelligence without conscience.
