The Granite City is ready to burn, and all it takes is a single spark...
In the heat of a blistering summer, Aberdeen's police are struggling: half the force is off sick, all leave has been cancelled, someone's firebombed a hotel full of migrants, and there's a massive protest march happening this Saturday. With officers dropping like flies, Detective Inspector Logan McRae is forced to juggle cases and run a major murder investigation with a skeleton staff of misfits, idiots and malingerers until the top brass can arrange back-up from other divisions. It doesn't help that the Aberdeen Examiner has just been bought by Natasha Agapova, a tabloid media tycoon, hell-bent on blaming local police for everything. And she's more than happy to fan the flames. But, as bad as everything seems, it's all about to get much, much worse . . . * * * Praise for Stuart MacBride: 'Dark and brilliantly written' - Linwood Barclay, author of I will Ruin You 'MacBride is a damned fine writer' - Peter James, author of Picture You Dead 'Crime fiction of the highest order' - Mark Billingham, author of The Last DanceStuart MacBride is the Sunday Times No. 1 bestselling author of the Logan McRae and Ash Henderson novels.
