Beneath the surface lie deadly secrets...DI Shona Oliver agreed to
move to Dumfries with her ex-banker husband when their teenage
daughter got in with a bad crowd in London. As a Glasgow native,
she's back on home turf. Living on the shores of the Solway Firth
allows Shona to continue as an RNLI volunteer, and a call out to
recover a woman's body indicates foul play. Police in Cumbria take
the case but links back to Scotland keep Shona's team involved. As
they investigate, reports of people trafficking and a spate of
thefts from local shops compete for attention with a large scale
drug bust. But Shona's work may all be in vain when those close to
her threaten to tear the case apart - and ruin Shona in the
process. An unforgettable debut novel by a Scottish crime writer to
watch, for fans of Val McDermid, Marion Todd and Lin Anderson.
Praise for In Dark Water 'A stunning and beautifully observed
novel. Shona Oliver is a well drawn figure, engaging a lot of
empathy from the reader in this absolutely fantastic debut.' Caro
Ramsay, author of Absolution 'A thrilling new voice in Scottish
crime fiction.' Marion Todd, author of See Them Run 'A fast-paced
debut detective novel set on the shores of the Solway Firth' The
Herald 'Being an avid reader, particularly in Scottish Crime
fiction, this book, not to mention the author, is up there with the
best and in Shona Oliver, we have a character in whom I hope there
is considerable mileage.' NetGalley review 'What a ride! Lynne
McEwan pulled me in and wouldn't let me go!' NetGalley review 'In
Dark Water is a very well written suspense novel. There are enough
twists and turns to keep you interested until the very end... The
descriptions were so vivid it made me feel as if I was right there
in Scotland. The characters were well-crafted and the ending was a
surprise.' NetGalley review
