Some come to escape; others bring their demons with them.
D.I. Duncan McAdam knows the quiet beauty of Skye’s Isle, a haven for nature-seekers and peace-chasers. But when a tourist’s body is found near Loch Coruisk, Skye’s calm is shattered—and so is McAdam’s seasonal reprieve.
With summer in full swing and visitors flooding in, McAdam and his small team face a tight-lipped community guarding secrets like buried treasure. Rumors stir, old grudges rise, and the island’s sunny façade hides dark undercurrents. McAdam must unravel a web of past sins and retribution before another body is claimed.
Will he find the truth before the island’s shadows close in?
Only one thing’s certain: peace is the last thing anyone can count on.
