A GRIPPING MYSTERY FROM THE NO.1 GLOBAL BESTSELLER, J M DALGLIESH.
Your past will find you. And it will kill you...
When the owner of a Portree gallery is found dead, lying in the snow at the foot of the Storr, DI Duncan McAdam and his small team must piece together who killed him and why. An ambitious man who liked to flirt, he had no shortage of enemies ... and many who would willingly kill him themselves.
As Duncan reveals the long-held secrets of the man’s life, his own ghosts come back to haunt him. The course of the investigation will not only put others in danger, but Duncan himself will have to face up to his past – whether he likes it or not...
Set amidst the dramatic landscape of the Isle of Skye, this addictive and fast-paced crime novel takes you into the heart of a rural community, where everyone is hiding secrets.
‘A phenomenal storyteller’ Simon McCleave
