DIAMONDS, REVENGE, AND MURDER REVEAL BURIED PASSIONS



1986: A consignment of illicit diamonds en route to London vanishes, along with the couriers. It isn't long before East End gangster Max Perry is found dead, having suffered horrific torture.



Present Day: Max's nephew, Ray, was sentenced to life in prison for taking his revenge. He is released after twenty-five years and heads for Helmsdale.



A NAIL-BITING CRIME MYSTERY WITH A HUGE TWIST



But before he can get there, Ray is the victim of a hit-and-run. DI Mike Nash is convinced it was no accident.



Then a garage mechanic is found tied up and bludgeoned to death. Nash discovers a link to an unidentified skeleton found years ago in Helmsdale woodland.



How do crimes committed long ago in London connect to the current wave of violence? As the body count rises, the detectives struggle to keep pace with those who would prefer the truth to remain dead and buried.
