A murder investigation unearths the brutal history of a village where innocence has a shifting meaning if you are alive. Or dead.
The smell back here is the smell of something rotten, worse than the blood on my clothes … I’d scream if I could but my voice catches in my throat. I stumble back and the shapes follow me, stretching high above me and I fall, my ankle twisting, my arms grabbing onto nothing and above me there’s only the height and the stone as my head smashes onto the floor.
In the first of the Burrowhead Mysteries, an atmospheric murder investigation unearths the brutal history of a village where no one is innocent.
When psychotherapist Alexis Cosse is found murdered in the playground of the sleepy northern village of Burrowhead, DI Strachan and her team of local police investigate, exposing a maelstrom of racism, misogyny and homophobia simmering beneath the surface of the village.
Shaken by the revelations and beginning to doubt her relationship with her husband, DI Strachan discovers something lurking in the history of Burrowhead, while someone – or something – equally threatening is hiding in the strange and haunted cave beneath the cliffs …
'One of the most important new writers around.'
