Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

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

I have only recently come across J M Douglish and have to say I’m a bit smitten. The characters are now really finding their patter and the storyline is great. Slightly worried about the rate of how quickly I listened to the first two books as I don’t want to suddenly have to wait for books to come out. Once again, immaculate narration by Angus King, he is quickly becoming one of my all time favourite listen too.

Second book even better than the first

It’s a police procedure, and you are not up close and personal with the perpetrator,which I like. Nice characters and I look forward to the next book.

Enjoyable

I'm a big JM Dalgleish fan but this was not his best. After a rather slow & not very exciting start, it gradually got going and became more enjoyable. Excellent narration.

A good read, but not his best
