Summary

Driven by amateur whisky-nut Adam, four late-thirties ex-university mates are heading to Islay—the remote Scottish island world famous for its single malts—with a wallet full of cash, a stash of coke and a serious thirst.

Over a weekend soaked in the finest cask strength spirit, they meet young divorcee Molly, who Adam has a soft spot for, her little sister Ash who has all sorts of problems and Molly's ex-husband Joe, a control freak who also happens to be the local police. As events spiral out of control, they are all thrown into a nightmare that gets worse at every turn.

I loved this book!

Started listening in the morning whilst doing my Christmas chores and couldn't stop. A bit dark at times, but a thoroughly good story read impeccably by Angus King.

Better than expected

Very glad that I wasn’t put off by some reviews because I found this book was a good story with a good mix of characters to like or hate. Narrated by the excellent Angus King.
