A huge crime wave has put the police force based in Inverness under a great deal of pressure, while the legend of a phantom drummer is clouding what is already a baffling case for the force.
This is the first book in the series by Peter Gray, and follows the life of Detective James Avalon who has unexpectedly been sent to the Highlands on secondment. He is a man in turmoil and knows he needs to make changes in his life, but will the sudden move north force his hand?
A contemporary thriller which stretches the deductive powers of Avalon, the book will also appeal to Highland readers who will enjoy reading a gripping thriller set in their own backyard.
