About this listen

Edinburgh DCI Harry McNeil isn’t easily intimidated. But after years investigating crooked cops, a promotion heading up a Major Investigation Team will put his reputation on the line. And he’s starting to sweat when the daughter of a rich and powerful family vanishes from the honeymoon suite in a Scottish Highlands castle....

Searching alongside officers from two other divisions, pushes McNeil to his breaking point when the investigation uncovers a charred corpse dressed in a wedding gown. Fearing the missing bride will suffer the same gruesome fate, the detective follows a 15-year long trail of clues littered with vengeance, false identities, and a tragic murder-suicide.

Can McNeil bring the butcher to justice before the celebration turns into a mass funeral?

I love this book .

Great book. I love the chemistry of the team and humor between Harry and Alex. Angus King always does a great job into bringing a book alive. Where is the rest of the series. Plz put all on audible.

Angus King

I listened to book 2 in this series because of the narrator. He is a rock star. But the story? Not So Much...Flat, one dimensional characters and a plot that was barely developed. Another 100 pages and this could have been a compelling story. And I have listened to short stories that delivered more punch. After the second book I still know almost nothing about DCI McNeill.
I'll stick with JD Kirk and DCI Logan.
