This House of Burning Bones

Stuart MacBride is back with Logan McRae to celebrate twenty years since the detective's first appearance in Cold Granite.

Don’t stoke the flames unless you want to get burned . . .

It’s not going well for Aberdeen''s NE Division: half the force is off sick, all leave has been cancelled, someone has firebombed a hotel full of migrants and there’s a massive protest march happening this Saturday.

With officers dropping like flies, Detective Inspector Logan McRae has to kick off a major murder investigation with a skeleton staff of misfits, idiots and malingerers until the top brass can arrange back-up from other divisions.

But, as bad as everything seems, things are about to get much, much worse . . .
