Resumen del Editor

A stolen child. A killer stalking the streets of Glasgow. A troubled detective running out of time.

Five years ago, DCI John Lomond led the search for notorious Glasgow child-killer ‘The Sandman', until personal tragedy forced him off the case.

In Lomond's absence, the killer was never found.

Now, with nothing but work left in his life, Lomond remains obsessed with the case–despite the nightmares it brings.

When a child is abducted in similar Sandman fashion from an affluent Glasgow suburb, Lomond is brought in to find them before it's too late.

But the only forensic evidence belongs to a little girl who was abducted and murdered twenty years ago.

Could the Sandman's identity lie buried in the coldest of cold cases? Or is a new killer about to claim their first victim?

The Bonnie Dead is the explosive debut Scottish crime thriller from Andrew Raymond–author of Amazon number one political thriller Official Secrets, which has now sold over 100,000 copies.

Shot through with dark Glaswegian humour and thrilling twists, he captures the voices of his beloved home city, taking you into its hidden depths, and the iconic hills and glens of nearby Loch Lomond and Arran.

If you like writers like JD Kirk, Ian Rankin, and Stuart MacBride, this addictive thriller will have you gripped until its haunting, heart-in-the-mouth climax.

Audiobook

Fantastic Read

Well-written, solid characters who I’ve grown attached to. There were twists I didn’t see coming! Overall a great start to a great series. Looking forward to more

John Jack Logan…

Andrew Raymond is right up there with Stuart McBride and JD Kirk, although it doesn’t hurt with Angus King narrating, this book is not nearly as funny, but it has some funny, I enjoyed it, worth the credit 📘

Fabulous

I love Scottish crime novels. This is the first in what I hope will be a long series about DCI Lomond.

Great character development, good plot and wonderful narrator. I actually discovered this book via the narrator.

Angus King narrates the JD Kirk series as well. I've ripped through all of his thrillers, so searched for other novels with Angus as the narrator and viola!

Thrilled to add another favorite author.

Another great Angus King performance

Good story, great narrator, keeps your interest. Angus King fills the room with different people/voices.

Solid story

Solid story with good twists that was also not overly graffic. Plus, you cannot beat Angus Young as narrator.

Good start to a series!

Another reviewer remarked that this was a not so great copy cat of JD Kirk's, DCI Logan series but I do not agree with that assessment. This was an interesting story and was pretty well written. The MC is likeable and the plot line has some pretty good twists. I think the reason for the other reviewers comments were because this series is also narrated by Angus King. A lot of the voices are similar including that the MC has the same voice as DCI Logan but I don't think that can be helped. There are only so many voices one narrator can do, and personally I love Angus King's narration and have started other series specifically because he was the reader. I am moving on to book two now!

First time listen toAndrew Raymond!

I will listen to anything narrated by Angus King. No let down here. The story is intense and very satisfying.
Each character was developed carefully with attention to the kind of detail you need to know to understand why they are who they are. Great descriptions of Glasgow.
I will definitely be staying with this series.
