A remote Highland castle. A dark and stormy night. A murder
most haunting.
It’s Halloween, and when a reclusive billionaire is discovered
dead in his study at McQuarrie Hall - a 14th century castle turned
stately hotel - DCI Jack Logan and his team must race the
worsening weather to get to the scene of the crime.
There, among the victim’s extended family and staff, Jack finds
no shortage of suspects. Everyone, it seems, had reason to want
the old man dead, and they all have something to hide.
Cut off from back-up and forensic support by the worst storm in
decades, and with the cast and crew of a TV ghost hunting show
seriously cramping his style, Jack’s only chance of solving his
latest case is by going back to basics.
But the castle’s residents won’t give him a minute to think.
Not even the dead ones… |
