Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

Get ready to be addicted to the page-turning new mystery thriller from Scottish crime author, Eva Macrae, perfect for fans of Stuart MacBride, Happy Valley, and Denzil Meyrick.

She bought a return ticket. She never came back…

When Holly Campbell’s body is found on the train tracks at Glasgow Central, police quickly rule it a suicide.

She’d had a troubled past. She’d tried before.

But Sergeant May Mackay can’t let one detail go. If Holly never wanted to come home, why did she buy a return ticket?

Driven by her own haunting loss and a promise to Holly’s grieving mother, May is determined to solve the mystery.

But the deeper she digs, the more sinister the truth becomes.

Someone is hiding a terrible secret. And they’ll do whatever it takes to keep it buried.

Even if it means silencing May for good…

Having been brought up in Glasgow, I have many fond memories of the city. This story captures from the first chapter to the end. The characters all have the unique Glasgow outlook on life and quick witted responses. The geography and descriptions of Glasgow are so true to life. This is the first of a new series that grabs your heart, pumping fast with sudden developments, whilst showing realistic compassion in real life situations in the ‘hard city’.

Excellent Glasgow Crime Drama

It’s a long time since I enjoyed a book as much as this. Great characters with plausible interactions. A wealth of knowledge about crime, social deprivation and the law.
Some great humour.
An excellent plot which was unpredictable.
Can’t wait for the next one.

What a brilliant book.
