The Darkness and the Deep
by Aline Templeton
The wreck of the Knockhaven lifeboat with the loss of all three of its
crew is a hard blow for the small Scottish town. But it's harder still
when DS Tam MacNee discovers that it isn't simply a tragic accident. Was
it just the act of vandals, bored in a fishing port stricken with
unemployment? Could it be linked to the drugs trade which has taken root
in the locality? Or is there someone who, in their determination to
kill one person, is callous enough to take two innocent lives? And if
so, who is the intended victim? As DI Marjory Fleming and her team
investigate multiple murders, with a whole community hungry for justice,
the pressure - professional and personal - is on.
