Beneath the surface lie deadly secrets, as DI Shona Oliver agrees to move to Dumfries with her ex-banker husband when their teenage daughter gets in with a bad crowd in London. As a Glasgow native, she's back on home turf, living on the shores of the Solway Firth. Shona can continue as an RNLI volunteer, and a call out to recover a woman's body indicates foul play. Police in Cumbria take the case, but links back to Scotland keep Shona's team involved. As they investigate, reports of people trafficking and a spate of thefts from local shops compete for attention with a large-scale drug bust. But Shona's work may all be in vain when those close to her threaten to tear the case apart – and ruin Shona in the process.

An unforgettable debut novel by a Scottish crime writer to watch, for fans of Val McDermid, Marion Todd, and Lin Anderson.
