A body hangs from the rafters, belly ripped open, the work of a deranged killer. When Fin McLeod gets a call to tell him he’s on his way to his hometown of Lewis, he is shocked to discover what is taking him back there is a murder with the same hallmarks as his case in Edinburgh.
Emotionally raw from a recent tragedy, he embarks on a journey back to his past. To Marsaili, the love he threw away, to Artair, the friend he left behind, to the parents he lost and to the rock he hoped he’d never see again.
