Sometimes murder is the only way to get even... The gripping new Scottish crime thriller that you won't be able to put down. Perfect for fans of L J Ross and Val McDermid. Four friends with dark secrets. One killer out for revenge. DI Frank Farrell and DS McLeod are tasked with investigating the brutal murder of a defence solicitor's wife in Dumfries. It's been over a year since they left the town after an investigation robbed them of a dear friend. But now they're back and must find a way to move on. When the son of another defence solicitor is murdered, a strange tattoo etched on his body, the case takes them into darker, more disturbing territory. It leads them back into the past - to a horrific fire in a cottage that took a woman's life, to four friends harbouring dark secrets - and finally to a killer waiting patiently for revenge.
