Stewart Scott is a first year trainee in one of Edinburgh's oldest law firms.
Out of his depth, he is constantly working just to stay in the game and match the talents of the other first year trainees. But a chance to shine comes Stewart's way when he is given the opportunity to partake in an investigation.
A client of the firm has recently died. The deceased, Major Robertson, left a substantial estate, and the terms of his will stipulate that his considerable wealth will go to his family - unless the Major died by suicide, whereupon his estate will be donated to a charity. And the conclusion, thus far, has been suicide.
Heading up the investigation into the Major's death is Sebastian Dakar, practicing Zen master and the most unlikely detective that Stewart could imagine. But upon their arrival at the Major's family home, Stewart begins to realise that perhaps the case of the Major isn't as cut and dried as first thought.
A former criminal prosecutor both in Scotland and at the international level for several years, Euan B Pollock (a pseudonym) is a new author writing murder-mysteries in the classic style. He currently resides in Northern Spain. To find out more, visit his website or follow him on twitter and facebook.
