About this listen
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

The strength of Shauna
Liked the continuous tension, especially between Bird and Shauna. How Bird turned out in the end. The number of plot twists that kept turning up!

only ok
The only reason why I persevered with this slightly tedious story is because I live in Dumfries and Galloway and therefore recognised a lot of the places. If I hadn't I would have given up after the first few chapters.
