About this listen

Edinburgh DCI Harry McNeil isn’t easily intimidated. But after years investigating crooked cops, a promotion heading up a Major Investigation Team will put his reputation on the line. And he’s starting to sweat when the daughter of a rich and powerful family vanishes from the honeymoon suite in a Scottish Highlands castle....

Searching alongside officers from two other divisions, pushes McNeil to his breaking point when the investigation uncovers a charred corpse dressed in a wedding gown. Fearing the missing bride will suffer the same gruesome fate, the detective follows a 15-year long trail of clues littered with vengeance, false identities, and a tragic murder-suicide.

Can McNeil bring the butcher to justice before the celebration turns into a mass funeral?

John Carson is my new obsession. This is the second book in the DCI Mitchell series I have listened to and looking forward to the next. Angus King is a fantastic narrator who gives each character their own personality.

Gripped by this series but really wish each story were twice as long. They end too quickly.

Fantastic book, but a bit too short!
