A girl who has seen more darkness than most.

A Scottish lawyer waiting to be killed.

A fingerprint discovered at a murder scene, from a man who couldn't possibly have been there.

As DI Alex Morrow acts as a witness in the trial of arms dealer Mark Lynch, who ranks among the most brutal and damaged of the criminals she's known, she's called to the death of a young businessman.

Her investogation uncovers a vicious network of power and corruption that reaches back to Glasgow on the night Princess Diana died.

And to a fourteen-year-old girl sat in a car with a dead body, the murder weapon still in her hand.

I have double copies of this book, so letting one travel. When I've read the copy I have I'll try to remember editing this journal with a little review.

Glasgow mentioned, so taken from the Stockholm meet-up... If I don't end up reading it, I'm sure someone in Falkirk Convention will!

The book travelled with me to Slovakia, Vienna and back. A pretty good thriller, although I struggled at first to keep up on who's who in it.

BC Convention release!

Picked up at the Falkirk Convention to read on the train journey home

This was my first Denise Mina novel but it was the 4th in a series so I found a lot of ongoings confusing as I probably didn't know the backstory from the previous books. It certainly was well written and gripping but I constantly felt like I was missing something. Note to self - read them in the right order. I did like the character of Alex Morrow and how she is trying to do her best as a police officer and mother while also dealing with a criminal brother in her own family.
