Flesh and Blood

A body in a bunker. A killer back from the past. A daughter doubting her father. When a body turns up in a golf course bunker, covered in blood and sand, DS Vicky Dodds must switch from her usual Dundee patch to search for a murderer in her home town of Carnoustie. But when a second, connected body is found, Vicky must confront the one who got away from someone close to her - the serial killer her ex-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 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, and is perfect for fans of Ian Rankin, Stuart Macbride, LJ Ross and JD Kirk.
