When millionaire banker Lars Anderson hangs himself from the old oak tree in front of his Kent mansion his death attracts no sympathy. One less shark is little loss to a world nursing a financial hangover. But the legacy of a lifetime of slef-serving is widespread, the carnage most acute among those he ought to be protecting - his family. He leaves behind two deeply damaged children and a broken wife.
Meanwhile in a wealthy suburb of Glasgow, a young woman is found savagely murdered in her home. The genteel community is stunned by what appears to be a vicious random attack. When DS Alex Morrow, heavily pregnant with twins, is called in to investigate, she soon discovers that behind the murder lurks a tangled web of lies. A web that will spiral through the local community, through Scotland and ultimately right back to a swinging rope hundreds of miles away.

I liked this novel better than "Still Midnight" as it wasn't so far fetched and had a more plausible ending. However, I still don't particularly like the main character as she thinks she can do as she pleases but grumbles about others doing the same.
