Do Unto Others
THEY’RE RICH. THEY’RE POWERFUL. THEY’RE DEAD.
Settling into his new life, Detective Chief Inspector Harry McNeil is being kept busy, but life is going to become a lot busier.
The body of an MSP has been found slaughtered in an empty house in Edinburgh. But this is no ordinary crime scene. It’s one that Harry McNeil thinks he’s seen before. Down to the last detail, including the position of the bodies.
As they start the hunt, they’re looking for a killer who seems to know far too much detail of what goes on behind the scenes at a kill site. Somebody who doesn’t want to stop.
Then Harry recollects where he saw this crime scene before.
This killer is copying murder scenes from the past. But the past is very much going to catch up with the present…
