Waterstones Says

DS Craigie has to contend with a vigilante serial killer on his own team in this gripping instalment of Lancaster's gritty police procedural series.

He'll watch you.
A lawyer is found dead at sunrise on a lonely clifftop at Dunnet Head on the northernmost tip of Scotland. It was supposed to be his honeymoon, but now his wife will never see him again.

He'll hunt you.
The case is linked to several mysterious deaths, including the murder of the lawyer's last client - Scotland's most notorious criminal... who had just walked free. DS Max Craigie knows this can only mean one thing: they have a vigilante serial killer on their hands.

He'll leave you to die.
But this time the killer isn't on the run; he's on the investigation team. And the rules are different when the murderer is this close to home.

He knows their weaknesses, knows how to stay hidden, and he thinks he's above the law...

Taylor ‘Rock hard cop stuff, from a writer who’s done it for real.

Highly recommended’ Mark Dawson ‘Absolutely blown away by how good this is … highly recommended’ Marion Todd ‘If you loved his Tom Novak series, you’ll love this even more’ Stephen Leather ‘A powerful and gripping story … D.
