This is a crime novel of rare power and vision. When a brutal murder on the Isle of Lewis bears the hallmarks of a similar slaying in Edinburgh, police detective Fin Macleod is dispatched north to investigate. But since he himself was raised on Lewis, the investigation also represents a journey home and into his past. Peter May has crafted a page-turning murder mystery that explores the darkness in our souls, and shows us just how difficult it is to escape the past.
