Very good mystery with unexpected twists. I really enjoyed it. This book was very interesting and had a different story line. There were something the author held out until the middle of the book which would have made it easier to understand. Overall I enjoyed it and would recommend it. Not all plots seemed relevant to overall theme.

She soon discovers that her husband may have been killed and that he is sending her coded messages from beyond the grave to help her unveil his murderer.
All of these plotlines start interweaving to create a story so complex, with so many different threads, that it is quite difficult to give a summary that will do it justice without giving too much away. Suffice to say that you are guaranteed a novel examining the more obscure psychological facets of serial killers the author studied law and criminal psychology before he turned to screenwriting and crime fiction. The constant shift in narrative and jumps in time may confuse readers for the first 80 pages or so, but once the connection between the different characters becomes more obvious the story grips, and you will find yourself reading this book until the wee hours of the morning despite its length.
The ending was quite a surprise and made me question all my previous assumptions. This is certainly not the case in this book. As other victims are found to have met the same terrible fate, and with more women at risk, Tony and Carol are drawn into a dark and twisted web of fear and revenge that will force them to question their own ideas of justice.
Volatile times in the city of discovery. DS Dania Gorska is a stranger in a foreign land. Born in Poland and transferred from London to Dundee's specialist crime division, she is called upon to investigate a series of grotesque killings where the victims are first brutally murdered and then displayed in a bizarre manner.
Although seemingly unrelated, clues point to the victims having been members of a local druidic cult. While solving these murders is Dania's priority, she finds herself increasingly drawn to the case of two runaway teenage girls. But when she learns they were also members of the same druid group she becomes convinced their disappearance is linked to the murders. And, despite what the evidence suggests, Dania starts to fear that the girls have not run away but are actually the newest, undiscovered victims of the killer.
