One of my favourite crime series⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ READER REVIEW

As a rowdy demonstration makes its slow and vocal way along Edinburghs Royal Mile, Detective Chief Inspector Tony McLeans team are on stand-by for any trouble. The newly promoted McLean is distracted, inexplicably drawn to a dead-end mews street . . . and a door, slightly ajar, which leads to this poor girls final resting place.

But how long has she been there, in her sleep of death? The answers are far from what McLean or anyone else could expect. The truth far more chilling than a simple cold case . . .

Praise for James Oswald:
