Resumen del Editor

A gathering of seven bestselling crime writers at a Scottish Highlands book festival turns deadly in a wickedly dark thriller that pays homage to Agatha Christie's classic murder mysteries, from the bestselling author of The Bonnie Dead.

When legendary crime novelist William MacRae is found dead in suspicious circumstances at his Glasgow home, Police Scotland's premier investigator DCI John Lomond is put on the case.

After discovering a list of seven bestselling authors–all old friends of MacRae's–Lomond and his team head north to the Ullapool Book Festival, where the seven are gathering to remember their fallen friend.

But a vicious storm is closing in. And not everyone, it seems, has fond memories of MacRae. Or each other.

Cut off from the outside world at a remote country home, it doesn't take long for the whisky to flow, old resentments to reignite…and another dead body to appear.

Over the course of one weekend, Lomond must sift through a web of red herrings, secrets, and lies.

One of them is a killer. But can Lomond unmask them before it's too late?

Oooh yes!

I very much enjoyed this one! Loved the Agatha Christie style set up and the allusions (whether real or imagined by me) to RL authors, such fun! The plot was interesting and complicated enough to keep me thinking, without being so convoluted as to become confusing. Lomond’s team are growing on me and I am looking forward to meeting them again in book 3.

Angus King’s narration is, as always, perfect.

Love the books, love the narrator! Want more!

I’ve now read/listened to all 4 books in this series, can’t wait for more! And cudos to the narrator!

I loved it!!

This story was set up in a good old fashioned mystery.,.the characters are good & the narration is amazing but sometimes I think of JD Kirks characters lol

Brilliant

A very spicy story. Absolutely one of the best books I’ve read for a very long time. Kudos to Andrew Raymond for some of the best writing I’ve seen in a long time. The narrator made it very lifelike. If there is even a grain of truth to the shenanigans within the writing industry, then this is outstanding in it’s intrigue. Brilliant!👏👏

Good listen

This book kept me guessing and it was a real good story and plot. The characters were believable and kept me guessing.

Totally Enjoyable

Interesting and thoroughly detailed including the end of a long story. Thanks for your work, Linda

Good book

If Angus King is reading I’m listening! Mr.Raymond can really weave a good story. Action sex murder and mystery.

Angus King is brilliant

I like knowing that I will hear a convoluted tale of tragedy, some really fine comic moments, more concernt and hope for Tom, and one of the finest narrators out there.

Great Book

I really enjoyed the book. Angus Kings narration is always great with me. I hope there will be more.

a great second book in the series

An interesting storyline and those of you that like Scottish noir will enjoy this The narration and the performance of the narration is excellent. I look forward to the next book in the series.
