Ten for thrills!' - Douglas Skelton, author of The Blood is Still 'Dark, intense, explosive' - Morgan Cry 'An incredible, heartbreaking, terror-filled, pulse-in-throat thriller. So brilliantly plotted, clever, slick and so, so dark.' - Bestselling author Cressida McLaughlin FURTHER PRAISE FOR HELEN FIELDS: 'Watch out Rebus, McRae and Perez there's a new detective in the running to become Scotland's fictional top cop...a real cracker of a page-turner that is truly difficult to put down.'
