About this listen

A new gripping Scottish crime thriller from the bestselling author of THE WOLF TREE

The hauntingly atmospheric and gripping new novel from the author of The Wolf Tree

In the mountainous region of the Scottish Highlands, a young woman's body has been found on a remote stretch of road. Though her manner of death suggests a terrible accident, a name carved into her arm hints at something more sinister.

And when a personal connection to the name is revealed, DIs Georgina Lennox and Richard Stewart are sent to investigate.

As George and Richie question locals, they discover that the road has a bloody history. Fearing that more women will be harmed, George and Richie track the killer through a rugged wilderness where ancient feuds, generational curses, and the unforgiving elements fight for supremacy.

But there are more secrets to the road than just its history—and the people living along it will do whatever it takes to stop those secrets from coming out.
