A Scottish ex-soldier comes to California in search of his brother's killers.

A former soldier, Gordon Reeve knows something about killing. So, despite the fact that his journalist brother's death has been ruled a suicide, he can't shake the feeling that someone is responsible -- & someone should pay.

Traveling from Scotland, Gordon arrives in California determined to get answers to his questions: Why would anyone want Jim dead? Why can't he shake the local cop who keeps thwarting his attempts to talk to the friend who saw Jim last?

If he's going to get to the bottom of this Gordon is going to have to keep his anger in control -- something he's never been very good at, & why he's an ex-soldier. Then, when he finds the killers, he can let that rage exact revenge on those who harmed his family.

With his taut & nerve-wracking skill, award-winning Ian Rankin -- best known for his Scottish Inspector Rebus series -- has penned a gripping story of one man's dogged pursuit of justice.
