About this listen
A gathering of seven bestselling crime writers at a Scottish Highlands book festival turns deadly in a wickedly dark thriller that pays homage to Agatha Christie's classic murder mysteries, from the bestselling author of The Bonnie Dead.
When legendary crime novelist William MacRae is found dead in suspicious circumstances at his Glasgow home, Police Scotland's premier investigator DCI John Lomond is put on the case.
After discovering a list of seven bestselling authors–all old friends of MacRae's–Lomond and his team head north to the Ullapool Book Festival, where the seven are gathering to remember their fallen friend.
But a vicious storm is closing in. And not everyone, it seems, has fond memories of MacRae. Or each other.
Cut off from the outside world at a remote country home, it doesn't take long for the whisky to flow, old resentments to reignite…and another dead body to appear.
Over the course of one weekend, Lomond must sift through a web of red herrings, secrets, and lies.
One of them is a killer. But can Lomond unmask them before it's too late?

Clever
I loved this book - I must admit I spent a considerable amount of time trying to work out which authors the characters were based on. Excellent 😊

Angus King did an amazing job as always bringing these characters to life ….. touching on sensitive topics and human nature. I would never have guessed the end so worth a listen can’t wait to read the next one

Clever, beautiful, it just keeps getting better
I didn’t want this to end! The continuation of DCI John Lomond’s story weaved into another intriguing mystery which extended my musical knowledge mixed in with a few tears. Can’t wait for the next one - extremely satisfying!

Great read
This book has a great deal going on but at the centre are great characters with an interwoven history. DCI Lomond is suitably dour but equally appealing. The story is tight and the narration excellent.
Looking forward to the next book!

The sensitive detective
I thoroughly enjoyed this book and could not put it down, day and night. It mystified, encouraged me to try to solve the puzzles. I was moved to tears in the concluding chapter and was amazed by the result.
A great book, great plot, well structured, so that it flowed effortlessly.
The narration was well done - my only concern with Andrew Harries narration was that I was unsure whether I was listening to DCI Lomond and his team or DCI Logan and his team!! Great Scottish crime novels all!!

Enjoyable till the end
I changed my mind a few times about the killer. This is a fabulous ‘who done it’ full of twists and turns, right till the end. The characters are very likeable and make you want to hear/read the next and the next and the next instalments of their lives and exciting stories by this brilliant author, I love Angus King’s narration, he brings the stories to life. I now HAVE to listen to some music. Onto the The Bloody Bloody Banks.
