Publisher's Summary

Just when he thought he was out....

Burdened by guilt over the trauma recently inflicted on his friends and colleagues, former-Detective Chief Inspector Jack Logan has spent the past nine months living in self-imposed exile.

When a mother and her young daughter are the victims of a double murder staged to look like suicide, Logan is dragged back to help hunt down and catch a brutal, calculating killer.

But the world has moved on without him. To do what needs to be done, Logan must first find his place among old friends and new enemies before the killer strikes again, and a whole Highland community tears itself apart.

Maybe early retirement wasn't such a bad idea, after all....

The Big Man Upstairs is the seventh novel in the internationally best-selling DCI Jack Logan Scottish crime fiction series, and perfect for fans of Ian Rankin, Val McDermid, and Stuart MacBride.

the best yet

I love Jack Lang and his cronies. A wonderful work and personal family.
I especially love the narration. I haven't laughed so much Ina book as he describes Jack's time out jogging and it's ramifications or his description of Jack and his new car. There's a lot more humour in this book , I hope it continues. I'd loved to have had a friend like Jack Logan.

Another Blinder

Just love keeping up with Jack, Ben, Shenaide and the crew.
Just story line with a twist near the end to keep us guessing.
I will however never look at ginger in the same way again!

I hope there’s more!

These books were so-o good!
The series just got better and better.
I loved the humour and the genuine comradeship of. the team.
Each person a genuine character.
The reading of the books by Angus King was excellent.

The above summation tempered the gruesomeness of what they had to endure in the line of their job.
