What you need to know before your trail
A mysterious death
On a small island off the coast of Scotland, an isolated community is grieving. Eighteen-year-old Alan Ferguson was found at the foot of the lighthouse – an apparent suicide.
DIs Georgina Lennox and Richard Stewart are sent to investigate. But a raging storm keeps them trapped on the island for four days. And the locals don’t take kindly to mainlanders.
As George and Ritchie question the island’s inhabitants, they discover a village filled with superstition and shrouded in secrets.
But someone wants those secrets to stay buried. At any cost.
Travel Guide
The island of Eilean Eadar
The island in the novel – Eilean Eadar – is fictional but it is somewhere off the west coast of Scotland.
“By the time the lonely island of Eailean Eadar comes into view just before midday, the rain has become so heavy that George has acquiesced to stand just inside the cabin door, her hood pulled tight around her eyes.
The sun is shuttered behind the murderous clouds , so George’s first impression of the tiny island thrown far off the west coast of Scotland is a sheet , dark cliff. Huge waves smash against the craggy rock face, yet Eadar stands resolute against their rage.”
