The author of the bestseller "Cold Granite," the multi-award-winning Scottish writer Stuart MacBride, signs the third in the series of thrilling suspense novels featuring the intelligent, successful, and somewhat marginal Inspector Logan McRae.

More mature than ever, MacBride takes us once again to the granite city, Aberdeen, where a serial maniac rapist leaves behind horribly abused young women. While Constable Jackie Watson roams the city's streets posing as bait to trap the sick killer, Logan tries to discover the identity of the abused body of a man left outside the hospital's Emergency Department. Logan's investigations lead him into the dark world of pornography and suspicious red-light rings. Persistently and stubbornly seeking the perpetrator, he discovers that the main suspect in the violent attacks is the star of Aberdeen's football team. However, while Logan is convinced that a serious mistake has been made in their investigation, Watson seems absolutely certain of the young footballer's guilt and is determined to prove it.

A book that will captivate and satisfy not only MacBride's avid readers but also all lovers of contemporary noir.
