'One of the most satisfying characters in modern crime fiction' – Daliy Mail

When Amy MacKenzie agrees to attend a meeting at a local spiritualist church, the last person she expects to hear calling to her from beyond the grave is her son. The son whom she'd only spoken to an hour before.

Then the body of a young man is found inside a Neolithic stone circle high above the city of Glasgow – and forensic scientist Rhona MacLeod is soon on the case. The hands have been severed and there is a stone in the victim's mouth with the number five scratched on it. DI Michael McNab is certain it's a gangland murder, but Rhona isn't convinced.

When a second body is found in similar circumstances, a pattern begins to emerge – that of a killer intent on enacting a gruesome Druidic game. One that everyone will be forced to play . . .

Reseñas de la Crítica

Lin Anderson is one of Scotland's natural treasures - don't be fooled by comparisons, her writing is unique, bringing warmth and depth to even the seediest parts of Glasgow. Lin's Rhona MacLeod is a complex and compelling heroine who just gets better with every outing (Stuart MacBride, author of the Logan McRae series)

Shades of The Wicker Man, with a touch of Agatha Christie. Superb

The best Scottish crime series since Rebus

They don’t call Lin Anderson the Queen of Tartan Noir for nothing! [She] is an expert at atmospheric narrative and with one swoop of her pen her prose will chill you to the bone

A real page-turner (Ian Rankin, author of the Inspector Rebus series, on The Party House)

Vivid and atmospheric . . . enthralling (The Guardian on The Killing Tide)

A cast of characters who feel like old friends (The Sunday Times on None But the Dead)
