Beloved by all who worked with him, the crime appears to be without motive or suspects.
Until Lomond digs into Beattie’s seemingly unblemished career, and uncovers shocking secrets involving Lomond’s superiors.
With a brash new addition to his Major Investigations Team, and the press breathing down his neck, Lomond must risk his entire future – both personal and professional – to bring a brutal killer to justice.
