Publisher's summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

An unmissable thriller from the number one bestselling author.

Who do you trust when everyone's guilty?

Marky Bishop is dying. That's why they've given him a compassionate early release, only where can a career criminal like him go to spend his final months?

From the outside, Glenfarach looks like a quaint, sleepy, snow-dusted village, nestled deep in the heart of Cairngorms National Park, but things aren't what they seem. The place is thick with security cameras, and there's a strict nine o'clock curfew, because Glenfarach is the last safe haven for people who've served their sentences but can't be safely released into the general population.

For Detective Constable Edward Reekie, this was supposed to be a simple delivery job—drive his new boss up to HMP Grampian and collect Marky Bishop, take him to Glenfarach, then head back home again. Nothing dangerous or complicated.

So how could it all go so horribly wrong?

The weather's closing in, tensions are mounting, and time's running out—something nasty has come to Glenfarach, and Edward is standing right in its way....

Extremely entertaining once again

Loved it! Stuart MacBride never disappoints, good plot, several twists that sometimes took a minute to catch up with. Narration was brilliant! Irreverent as ever ! Keep up the good work

Typically Brilliant

integrated start, confused by the 2 authors and various voices, BUT! ended up loving the performances, and it gave the twists and turns the most brilliant 'hang into your seat' edge. This is easily my favourite Macbride Audio book narration! Typically Brilliant story from Macbride - you cannot predict anything!

Outstanding

As always Stuart McBride tells a riveting, grim, twisty and bleakly funny story. Excellent performance from both readers.
