Summary

A remote shoreline. A lethal killer. As lone visitors disappear from the rural northwest of Scotland, campsites are becoming crime scenes. The Wild Coast is a chilling thriller from Lin Anderson.

When forensic scientist Rhona MacLeod is brought in to analyse a shallow grave on Scotland’s west coast, she is disturbed by a bundle of twigs crafted into a stickman and left in the victim’s mouth.

Then, when a young woman is reported missing from a nearby campsite with another sinister figurine left in her van, it seems that someone is targeting wild campers. An idyllic coastline known for providing peace and serenity, now the area is a hunting ground.

As her investigation proceeds, Rhona is forced to reconsider her closest bonds. Rumours of sexual assault offences by serving police officers are circling in Glasgow, which may include her trusted colleague DS Michael McNab. Could it be true, or is someone looking to put him out of action?

All the while a young woman’s life is on the line and the clock is ticking...

Good story well read but - pronunciation!

Good story and well read apart for the pronunciation of Arisaig, Mallaig and Machair (just awful to listen to over and over - almost gave up listening) Not hard to find correct pronunciation - just phone the poileas

Disappointed

This was the first Lin Anderson audio book that I purchased and sadly I won’t be buying another one. I found the story to be too long winded with too many characters and long, boring passages that had no bearing on the story. The narrator wasn’t great and her tone was flat and hard to listen to for any length of time. I don’t recommend this audio book.
