Secrets buried in the past have a way of resurfacing.
When a man is found murdered during a pagan ceremony at an ancient clootie well in the Moray countryside, Detective Inspector Fiona MacLeod believes she is investigating an isolated killing.
At the same time, an investigative journalist disappears while pursuing a drug-smuggling operation operating along the Moray coast. The two cases appear unrelated. One is rooted in local superstition. The other in organised crime.
They are wrong.
As more witnesses die and every lead uncovers another layer of deception, Fiona and her team realise someone will kill to keep the truth hidden. What begins as two separate investigations slowly reveals a conspiracy stretching from Findhorn Harbour to the corridors of power.
With time running out and another witness marked for death, Fiona must risk everything on a single operation that could expose the organisation-or destroy her team.
Set against the haunting landscapes of northeast Scotland, The Clootie Well is a gripping police procedural combining folklore, murder, corruption and relentless suspense.
Perfect for readers of Ian Rankin, Ann Cleeves, Peter May and Val McDermid.
