| Summary |
"In this gritty, mystery series debut, a lone wolf detective must use her wits to nab a serial killer terrorizing Edinburgh professionals. If it was me, if I was the murderer , Alice thought, where would I go? What would I do? The job he had set himself was unfinished, he must be aware that his luck could not go on forever. It was a simple calculation; at best, a lifetime in prison, at worst he'd be killed by the police while attempting to complete his self-appointed task... Introducing Alice Rice, Edinburgh detective. Smart and capable, but battling disillusionment and loneliness, she races against time and an implacable killer to solve a series of grisly murders among Edinburgh's professional elite in the well-to-do New Town. Praise for Blood in the Water "With this highly readable debut novel, Gillian Galbraith establishes what one hopes will be a long-running presence. This is a vivid and exciting story, set against the background of Edinburgh's legal and medical circles. There is not a dull page from start to finish." --Alexander McCall Smith "Chilling realism." -- Edinburgh Evening News (UK)"-- Provided by Freading. |
