Sinopsis

The summit was just a few more minutesâÇÖ climb as the bottle slipped from his weakening grip. He was aware that he was dying. Not here. Not now. Not alone. Through the pain, his mind screamed a silent final eulogy.áWhen a distillery ownerâÇÖs body is discovered on top of a remote Scottish mountain, forensics confirm that he died of natural causes. But the dead manâÇÖs sister claims he was murdered.áAs Detective Inspector Corstorphine delves into the victimâÇÖs family, disturbing questions emerge. Why is the daughter kept sedated and locked in her room? Who is stalking the son as he scatters his fatherâÇÖs ashes on lonely mountain peaks? Each clue - from a haunting painting defaced in blood to a deadly botanical poison - points to someone with intimate knowledge of the family.áThen a young womanâÇÖs suicide becomes entwined with the case, and Corstorphine must confront a killer whose vengeance traces back to a childhood act with devastating consequences.áFrom a CWA New Blood Dagger Longlist author and McIlvanney Best Scottish Crime Novel Finalist, The DevilâÇÖs Cut weaves a haunting tale of family loyalty and unspoken truths in this atmospheric Scottish crime thriller. If you love LJ Ross, Ian Rankin and Ann Cleeves youâÇÖll love Andrew James Greig.Readers love The DevilâÇÖs Cut:áâÇÖAbsolutely blew my socks off, itâÇÖs brilliant! A real page turner that I finished in a few hours - once I had started I just didnâÇÖt want to stop. Continuing from book one I really like the characters that the author has created for this series.
