Publisher's Summary
The eighth Logan McRae novel in the No.1 bestselling crime series from Stuart MacBride.
Every murder tells a story. But not every victim tells the truth.
‘A terrific writer … McRae is a delight’ The Times
Sticks and stones may break your bones…
The first body is chained to a stake: strangled, and stabbed, with a burning tyre around its neck. But is this a gangland execution or something much darker?
Someone’s leaving little knots of bones on DI Logan McRae’s doorstep, but he’s got bigger concerns. Rival drug gangs are fighting over product and territory; two teenage lovers are missing; someone’s crippling Asian immigrants; and Logan’s been lumbered with an ambitious new Detective Sergeant and gained the unwelcome attention of the local crime boss.
When another body turns up, the similarities between these murders and the plot of a bestselling novel seem like more than just a coincidence. And perhaps those little knots of bones are more important than they look…

Keystone Cops
Stuart portrays the police as clowns. No wonder they can't carry guns. Good read 😅

Great listening
I love these books and over time the characters have become like old friends. I enjoy the way they have developed and the interaction between the different personalities. I hope to see more books in the future

Awesome narration
Have always loved MacBride as an author, but this was the first book of his I had listened to.. brought it to an other level. Great accents and characterization .. Steele sounded just as I had imagined her... made me laugh lots 😊

Brilliant
I love the way McBride describes scenes - not usually into ‘witchcraft’
But this was great.

Absolutely disappointing
I've read all the series and was excited to see this one. I was totally disappointed. I struggled to finish it. At times I had to go back chapters to understand and make sense of it. The ending was totally ridiculous. It seemed like the author had ran out of idea's and rushed to finish.
