Publisher's summary

Is a killer still on the loose?

The 30th gritty mystery in Quintin Jardine's best-selling Bob Skinner series, not to be missed by listeners of Ian Rankin and Peter May.

Former Chief Constable Bob Skinner may have left the police service, but he's never far from a case. When his old mentor on the force, Jimmy Proud, finds himself in a desperate situation, Skinner gets pulled into a murder investigation that's been closed for 30 years.

The Body in the Quarry case was well-known around Edinburgh at the time: a popular priest found dead in a frozen quarry; a suspect with a clear motive charged; a guilty verdict. But with a journalist uncovering new evidence, the cold case has come back to haunt Proud - and only Skinner can help him.

With the clock ticking and his friend's reputation at stake, Skinner must uncover the truth to find out if an innocent man was convicted for murder. And if a killer is still on the loose....

Kind of dull. It did pick up at the 3 quarter point then roared toward the solution though I think I missed what became of one character. Usually I like cold case detection but aside from the dark humor of dropping the body onto ice instead into water, I suggest
you pass this by.
