Description
'MacBride is a masterful storyteller with a terrific eye for detail and razor-sharp wit. This House of Burning Bones is an absolute must-read.' - Karin Slaughter , author of This Is Why We Lied The Granite City is ready to burn, and all it takes is a single spark . . . In the heat of a blistering summer, Aberdeen's police are struggling: half the force is off sick, leave has been cancelled, someone's 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 is forced to juggle cases and run a major murder investigation with a skeleton staff of misfits, idiots and malingerers until the top brass can arrange back-up from other divisions. It doesn't help that the Aberdeen Examiner has just been bought by Natasha Agapova, a tabloid media tycoon hell-bent on blaming local police for everything. And she's more than happy to fan the flames. But, as bad as everything seems, it's all about to get much, much worse . . . * * * Praise for Stuart MacBride: 'Stuart MacBride is an automatic must-read for me . . . always fast, hard, authentic - and different' - Lee Child, author of the Jack Reacher series 'Dark and brilliantly written' - Linwood Barclay, author of I Will Ruin You 'MacBride is a damned fine writer' - Peter James, author of Picture You Dead 'Crime fiction of the highest order' - Mark Billingham, author of The Last Dance This House of Burning Bones was a Sunday Times bestseller w/c 19/05/25
