Dead and Gone

One murder. Two bodies. A chilling island secret . . .

Detective Fraser Brodie is at a grisly crime scene on the Isle of Harris. Local aristocrat Lord Edward Devlin has been brutally murdered, his skull bashed in. The violent and bloody scene is all the more shocking for the fact that the victim was eighty.

As forensics comb for evidence they uncover a second body - but this crime is not recent. Why are these remains on the Devlin Estate, and are the two deaths somehow connected?

With the help of his team, DI Fraser Brodie must race to find the killer and solve a crime that threatens to tear apart this small community. But with his brother out of prison for urgent hospital tests, will he be able to unearth the secrets and lies that have cast such a long shadow over this rugged and beautiful isle?
