A dead boy. A missing girl. A dark mystery.
When a teenage boy is abducted from a Dundee street in broad daylight, DS Vicky Dodds and her team are put on the case.
The drowned body is found with just one clue — an inscrutable code scratched onto his arm.
Vicky must hunt across Dundee for the brutal killers, drawing on old friends and family to probe the deep corners of the dark web and Scottish gangs.
As Vicky learns to doubt who she can trust, she connects with a new friend, someone who can maybe help her resolve her own murky past.
From the acclaimed author of the DI Fenchurch series, Skin & Bone is an unyielding police procedural that explores the darkest corners of the human psyche, perfect for fans of Ian Rankin, LJ Ross, JD Kirk and Stuart MacBride.
Readers LOVE this Action-packed Thriller:
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "I couldn’t put this book down! I love the character Vicky Dodds. A great read that keeps you wanting more!" – Goodreads review
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Once again [Ed James] has written a thriller which has so much more happening than first appears with the research undertaken obvious from the detail included. One of the reasons I enjoy his various series is because it has always seemed that Mr James enjoys every word he writes and this storyline is no different in that regard. The characters are flawed but real and as an added treat characters and investigations from some of his other books also appear here which I thoroughly enjoyed." – Goodreads review
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Really 5 stars is not enough for this book. I loved every page and could not put it down...will be recommending this to all my Dundee pals" – Goodreads review
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Kept me completely gripped and I had no idea who the main villain was (there were so many to choose from). Ed James writes Crime Thrillers so well, and he has some fantastic main characters, but Vicky Dodds is without doubt my favourite" – Goodreads review
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Well written and a great pace that kept going through the whole book, some more nice character development and great crime story. Loved how it all came together at the end, couple of good twist and turns in there. No wonder Ed James is one of my favourite authors with great books like this!" – Goodreads review
