It’s no ordinary summer for DCC Bob Skinner, as murder mystery leaps from the page into reality in the nineteenth volume of Quintin Jardine’s outstanding cop series.
It’s August and the Edinburgh International Book Festival is in full swing. So it’s a considerable embarrassment when one of Scotland’s most successful crime writers is found dead in the author tent. The victim’s phone was tapped. Are the spooks involved? Or has mystery fiction become true crime? A second victim begs the question: have the authors become targets themselves?
