Mid-winter, St. Andrews, Scotland: When a university lecturer fails to turn up for class, he is found dead at home, with evidence of having committed suicide. A female student reports to the police that she was having an affair with him and knows he would never commit suicide. Toxicology results turn up Class A drugs in his system, and DCI Andy Gilchrist and his associate, DS Jessie Janes, are called in to investigate.
The initial enquiry soon turns into a murder investigation, and when Gilchrist and Jessie dig deep into the man's background, they uncover a criminal past, a history of romance scams, and several bank accounts containing hundreds of thousands of pounds. A forensic search of the man's computer hard-drives reveals a lengthy trail of heartbroken women tricked into parting with their savings in a futile search for love.
Did one of those scorned women seek revenge and kill him? Or did his criminal past finally catch up with him?
Praise for T.F. Muir: Rebus did it for Edinburgh. Laidlaw did it for Glasgow. Gilchrist might just be the bloke to put St. Andrews on the crime fiction map.
Daily Record: A truly gripping read, with all the makings of a classic series.
Mick Herron: Gripping and grisly, with plenty of twists and turns that race along with black humour.
Craig Robertson: DCI Gilchrist gets under your skin. Though, determined, and a bit vulnerable, this character will stay with you long after the last page.
Anna Smith: Gripping!
Peterborough Telegraph: Gripping!
