From the no.1 bestseller Val McDermid: journalist Lindsay Gordon becomes embroiled in a world of secrets, lies and blackmail in this gripping thriller

When Alison Maxwell, a well-known Glaswegian journalist, is found murdered, the police look no further than the owner of the scarf use to strangle her, Alison’s former lover, Jackie

Fellow journalist Lindsay Gordon doesn’t believe that Jackie is capable of murder and digs into Alison’s life to find the true culprit.

She soon discovers that Alison secretly kept records of her affairs. Suddenly the list of suspects is a mile long. Jackie’s trial has already begun, and Lindsay is running out of time – can she find Alison’s killer before it’s too late?
