Candles and Roses Publisher's Summary

Detective Inspector Alec McKay is drawn into a chilling hunt for a serial killer. But first he must face the demons of his own past…

Still grieving the tragic loss of his daughter, McKay becomes obsessed with a seemingly cold missing persons case—until bodies start turning up across the Black Isle. Each victim is surrounded by roses and candles, leaving McKay and his team to untangle the disturbing ritual behind the murders. As they struggle to crack the killer’s cryptic pattern, McKay’s own life begins to unravel.

Meanwhile, the young woman who discovered the first victim embarks on a dangerous investigation of her own—one that catches McKay’s eye, and the killer.

Alec McKay’s quest for justice will force him into a deadly game of cat and mouse, where the line between right and wrong becomes blurred, and the truth could cost him everything…

This gritty crime thriller, set against the brooding backdrop of the Scottish Highlands is perfect for fans of Ian Rankin and makes “compulsive reading” -The Independent.
