Welcome to rain-lashed Glasgow. Scotland’s second city. It doesn’t have a castle or an Insta-ready skyline. But to Detectives Colin Anderson and Winifred ‘Freddie’ Costello — two rising stars of the local murder squad — it’s home. From its seedy back streets to the drizzly grey heights of the Necropolis. And they wouldn’t have it any other way.
Until . . . they come face to face with Elizabeth Jane Fulton. Or what’s left of her.
She’s been murdered in her own home. Torn open and posed like a martyr on a cross. She looks peaceful.Her blood pooling around her like angel wings. And there’s no sign of a forced entry.
Elizabeth is not the first victim to die like this. And she won’t be the last.
Detectives Anderson and Costello can’t let more women die. Not in their city. Not on their watch.
Little do they suspect where this dangerous trail will take them . . . and the dark past that will be exposed along the way.
MEET THE DETECTIVES Still waters run deep with Detective Inspector Colin Anderson. In the workplace, he is calm, efficient and focused, with an easy charm that’s helped him earn the trust of his boss, DCI McAlpine. McAlpine may have his eye on Colin. But he’s failed to notice one crucial detail. Namely, Colin’s complicated feelings for McAlpine’s beautiful and damaged wife.
Detective Sergeant Winifred ‘Freddie’ Costello may be a first-rate, intuitive detective. But she has suffered many misfortunes in life. Like being named after not one, but two grandmothers. And don’t even mention her track record with cars. Like the men in her life, they have a habit of letting her down just when she needs them most. Then there’s her wholly inappropriate fixation with her boss — the chiselled and enigmatic McAlpine. Try as she might, she can’t seem to shake her infatuation with him. But she won’t let that stand in the way of her career.
