THE MULTI-MILLION-COPY BESTSELLING AUTHOR

One murder. Three empty graves. And a secret worth killing for...

D.I. Duncan McAdam is called to a remote cemetery on the Isle of Skye to investigate a desecrated grave. The deceased was the skipper of a trawler, whose crew all died in mysterious circumstances. One man fell to his death; the second took his own life; the third jumped from a rocky clifftop. Only one crewman remains.

When Duncan goes to interview the skipper’s widow, he finds her house ransacked - there's blood on the floor and a body in the boot of her car.

As the case begins to spiral, Duncan’s challenges with his son come back to haunt him. Can he find the only surviving crew member before it’s too late? What secrets did these men take with them to their graves? And why is someone willing to kill to unearth them now?
