The Reckoning

By: Sue Walker

Narrated by: Jonathan Hackett

In June 1973 the bodies of three missing teenagers were found on the tiny Scottish island of Fidra. And when his father was arrested for the murders, 11-year-old Miller McAllister's life fell apart. Now, 32 years later, Douglas Mcallister has died in prison, and Miller returns home after decades of self-imposed exile. The rest of his family has always claimed Douglas' innocence, while Miller has always maintained his guilt. But when Miller is given a letter his father wrote to him before his death, suddenly everything looks less clear. Could Douglas have been innocent after all? And if he didn't kill the girls...who did?©2005 Sue Walker (P)2006 Oakhill Publishing Ltd

Critic reviews

"Walker pulls out all the stops in this terrific story. She ratchets up the tension, keeps the clues deftly hidden, and keeps the reader glued to the page." (The Globe and Mail
