About this listen

A Highland heist from award-winning author Abir Mukherjee

Sunita lives a quiet life in the village of Glentorrance, running the local post office. When a letter arrives on her doorstep, her husband’s shady past threatens to disrupt their lives, spurring Sunita into an unwanted adventure which will change everything. Her peace is soon shattered when she finds an intruder in her shop, and as the past catches up with her, she must figure out who she can turn to and who she can trust…

Can Sunita rely on Margot from the village shop to help her? Will Roddy’s craft whisky, fit for the finest palate, be enough to save the terrified postmistress? And what are the plans of Primakov, the mysterious billionaire with a temper and a taste for the best?

Read by Sudha Bhuchar (Virdee, Eastenders, Coronation Street), this gripping story was written specially for BBC Radio.

Writer Abir Mukherjee is the author of the award-winning Wyndham and Banerjee series of action-packed thrillers set in Raj-era India.
