How do you solve a murder when everyone's a suspect?

Tormented by the recent loss of a colleague, DCI Jack Logan is on the warpath, determined to bring down all those he holds responsible for the officer's death.

His quest for revenge is cut short when a woman's body turns up on the remote island of Canna, and Jack is summoned to investigate. As a storm closes in, Jack finds himself cut-off from the rest of the world, with no car, no phone signal, and only DC Neish for company.

With time running out before the ferries resume, Jack must act fast to crack the case before the killer can escape. But with the victim widely hated on the island, everyone on it is a potential suspect.

Even the scarecrow....

The Last Bloody Straw is the fifth book in the DCI Jack Logan series, set in the Highlands and Islands of Scotland. Perfect for fans of Ian Rankin, Chris Brookmyre, and Stuart Macbride.

Just like to say that I've had to rewind Chapter 8 four times to listen to the twin room/sharing a room scene. I was crying with laughter - the best kind!! Awesome stuff. The best Christmas present I've given myself. Love it. Thanks Angus King also.
Oh, no - what's going to happen when I've finished the series?? Will have to restart.

Haven't even finished but such a gripping read.

Pretty gritty tale with some very unpleasant characters. Interesting all the way through and in some places very funny. Well worth the listen and I'll definitely be using some credits on other books in the series.

Very funny in places.

This book is more character driven than some of the earlier ones. And possibly believable. Unlike a few other reviewers I had no problem with the swearing- found it pretty funny actually… and not that out of keeping with the way some people express themselves! Otherwise good patter, and the Aussie accent wasn’t even terrible.

Best one yet
