Can DI Brian Brandon uncover the truth before a devious killer slips through his fingers?



Everyone loved Carl Wiley. So who killed him during a party on a tidal island off Strathburgh’s shore, then set the crime scene on fire to cover their tracks?

As the investigation progresses, Brian realises there’s more to Carl than meets the eye... and the longer his suspect list grows. Did Carl underestimate how far he could test his best pal Gaz’s loyalty? Did he push the wrong party guest over the edge? Or has Strathburgh’s most charming liar finally reaped what he’s sown?

With the killer already several steps ahead, Brian is running out of time.

Perfect for fans of JD Kirk, Ian Rankin, Helen Fields, and Val McDermid, this is the gripping, fast-paced second instalment in the dark, gritty Scottish crime series featuring DI Brian Brandon of the city of Strathburgh's Major Investigations Team.
