DI Joanne Christie is called out to a suspected suicide at an Edinburgh hotel, where the owner had to break into the room to allow access to the body. It does not take long to discover that this was actually a murder and the main suspect is in her presence. The only question, was how did the murderer get out of the locked room without leaving a trace?
Meanwhile, a seemingly random assault and a missing person case from four years ago are being investigated within the team, but as these cases progress, there is more than a coincidental link to Christie's case.
As the retrial date of Edinburgh's most notorious serial killer comes closer, Christie has other concerns to be considering.
As always, I LOVE the DI Christie series and was over the moon when I heard another was being published. This was the perfect book to get me out of my reading slump and throughly enjoyed it. It’s hard to put down because you’re always wondering what next! Very interested to hopefully see what’s next for DI Christie and the gang! Another great book Ross.
