About this listen
An ear-shattering scream pierces the quiet Glasgow street as a mother stands frozen in her doorway, groceries strewn at her feet. Her son holds a bloodied knife while his father lies dead before him.
As Logan Martin begins his prison sentence for the brutal murder of his father, the eighteen-year-old’s aunt hires private investigator Teàrlach Paterson. She believes Logan is innocent and wants Teàrlach to uncover the truth.
Teàrlach’s visit to the Martin family home yields two disturbing discoveries: a pentagram etched under the carpet in Logan's sister’s bedroom, and a link to the sinister deaths of their elderly neighbours—a journal with the same ominous symbol lies in the couple's home.
While ritualistic murders plague the city, bodies placed precisely on an occult pentagram, bound in intricate knots, Teàrlach and his team unearth the sinister inspiration behind the killings in a mysterious ancient map.
Then, two young women are reported missing, and Teàrlach fears the worst. He’s inching closer to a killer who is weaving a complex web of murder rooted in Glasgow’s pagan past. But can Teàrlach stop the twisted soul from carrying out another cruel ritual? This time, one of his own is about to be in grave danger.
A completely thrilling and atmospheric pulse-pounder that will keep you up listening deep into the night from a CWA New Blood Dagger Longlist author and McIlvanney Best Scottish Crime Novel Finalist. Perfect for fans of LJ Ross, Ann Cleeves, and Val McDermid.

Some good aspects but an unlikely tale
Good enough characterisation for the main players. Not so good on lesser characters. Dee seems to have given up her nightly binge drinking habit from book one. The plot is even more unlikely than that book. Much of it makes no real sense. I’ve given four stars overall. This is generous. I think I won’t listen to a third story, if there is one.

Highly Likable Characters
Have thoroughly enjoyed both novels in this series. Steve Worsley does a great job of bringing the three highly likable colleagues to life. The Pagan angle was intriguing, with a few unseen twists. However I would have liked further resolution to Emily‘s story, as feel this ended rather abruptly, as did the stories of the other sacrifice victims.

Poor effort
The storyline is so weak it's almost childlike. The dialogue between the characters is so stilted it stops them coming alive although the narrator does the best he can. Who the good guys and the bad guys are is immediately obvious. After the grand finale I couldn't help but feel I'd heard it all before. It's a shame because book one was really good. Not recommended sorry.

Disappointed
Such a disappointment I enjoyed book 1 so much that I put this on request when released, what a waste of a credit. The storyline was weak and at times predictable, with very few wow moments, the characters were bland and boring it was difficult to get enthused about them . Steve tried hard to make the characters and story work , but even he couldn't make this story enjoyable.
