DCI Jack Logan is back!

When washed-up 80s rock legend Johnny Freestone is found dead in a cave off Scotland's North Coast 500 tourist route, it looks like a tragic accident–another celebrity lost to a reckless lifestyle.

But Police Scotland detective–and secret Freestone fan–Jack Logan isn’t convinced that the star's death was an accident. As Logan delves into Johnny's final days, he uncovers a trail of bitter rivalries, broken promises, and a comeback tour that wasn’t quite what it seemed.

With the Highlands’ rugged backdrop as the stage, Logan must unravel a web of secrets and lies that entangles everyone from music studios to old flames, and find out who wanted the self-styled 'voice of a generation' silenced for good.

Somewhere between a rock and a hard place, the truth waits to be unearthed...

A ROCK AND A HARD PLACE is the 21st book in the multi-million selling DCI Jack Logan series, and the perfect jumping on point for new audiences wanting to find out what all the fuss is about.

Logan is back better than ever

I always enjoy Logan and crew. The mysteries are not that intense but if you want to fall for a cast of characters you can’t get better than Kirk and King

Murder mystery with a cast of entertaining characters
