Do yourself a favour and read James Oswalds series. I can almost guarantee you wont stop at one⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ READER REVIEW

Inspector Tony McLean is called to a routine break-in at Drake BioTech, a trendsetting Edinburgh start-up at the cutting edge of DNA re-engineering. Its well below McLeans pay-grade, but given the extensive political connections of its eccentric owner Nathaniel Drake, he doesnt have a choice. Even if nothing appears to have been stolen.

A missing person soon turns up dead with no signs of trauma or suggested cause of death, and still the police can find no connection between the strange events at play in the city. But when another victim is discovered cradling a small wooden box, McLean and DI Janie Harrison realise that this might be just the beginning of something even more sinister.

What will those responsible do to finally get their hands on it? Or, more terrifying still, how much death and ruin might this unassuming object have in store?
