Deadly secrets lie beneath the surface…
DI Shona Oliver agrees to move to Dumfries with her ex-banker husband when their teenage daughter gets mixed up with a gang of bad guys in London. A native of Glasgow, she returned to her hometown.
Living on the shores of the Solway Firth, Shona was able to continue working as an RNLI volunteer, while calls for the recovery of a woman’s body suggested foul play. Cumbria Police took over the case, but links to Scotland brought Shona’s team into the mix. During the investigation, reports of human trafficking and a series of thefts at local stores competed for attention with a massive drug operation. But all her work may be in vain when those close to Shona threaten to tear the case apart and destroy Shona in the process.
An unforgettable debut novel from a Scottish crime writer that’s worth watching for fans of Val McDermid, Marion Todd and Lyn Anderson.
