The latest instalment of the DS Alex Morrow series. Set in Glasgow, this is a smart, engrossing addition as we continue to follow Alex's career as a homicide detective & her home life where she & her husband await the arrival of twins. As always, in the background is her brother Danny who has chosen the other side of the law & she goes to great lengths to distance herself from her upbringing & any contact with him. A brutal murder & an extremely disfunctional family strike a chord. And there may be big changes as Bannerman faces his own problems as her boss. These can be read as stand alone novels but you get alot more out of them if you know the history.
