A dead body in a golf bunker. A serial killer back from the past. A daughter learning about her father.

When a body turns up in a golf course bunker, covered in blood and sand, DS Vicky Dodds must switch her usual Dundee patch to search her home town of Carnoustie for a murderer.

But when a second, connected body turns up, Vicky must confront the one who got away from someone close to her — the serial killer her cop father lost his mind hunting down back in the 90s.

As Vicky is torn between her job and her family life, other figures come out of the distant past. But can she stop this killer before he strikes again?

From the acclaimed Scottish Crime author of the DI Fenchurch series, Flesh & Blood is an unyielding police procedural that fearlessly examines whether the past should remain dead and buried.
