ON THE CURSED ROAD EVERY STEP COULD BE YOUR LAST
Deep in the Scottish Highlands, the body of a young woman is found on the cursed road, a narrow track with a bloody history.
It initially looks like an accident, but a name scratched on the dead woman’s arm links to an unsolved case from years ago.
Glaswegian detectives Georgina Lennox and Richard Stewart are sent north to investigate, and they discover a community riven by a centuries’ old blood feud and modern rivalries.
As George and Richie attempt to get to the truth behind the dark rumours, a killer is waiting, determined that some secrets are never uncovered.
Perfect for fans of Jane Harper, Neil Lancaster and Ann Cleeves, this is a twisty, gripping and atmospheric Scottish crime mystery set in the highlands that you don't want to miss!
