Summary

A killer hides deep in the darkness…

DI Rob Marshall is stuck in Gartcosh, leading the new Behavioural Sciences Unit – a staff of one and a third – where he’s executing a fruitless hunt, profiling every single murder in Scotland just in case they’re serial cases.

But when a young Peebles woman’s body is discovered in Neidpath Tunnel, disused since the sixties, Marshall is called in to consult on a case on his old home turf. Paired up with his replacement, a cop who’s disinterested in the work, Marshall must tread a line between helping and not jumping to conclusions.

As the scope of the case wides, can Marshall find a killer who may have led many down his path of darkness? Or is Marshall on his own road to destruction?

Another great book from Ed James and as ever the narration by Angus King. Set mainly in the boarders of Scotland strange murders happen all around. The police eventually get some ideas that they could be connected and that they have a serial killer roaming free. In addition it becomes clear that one or even two of their fellow detectives are rouge.

The best in the series so far!

A fantastic Detective Crime Thriller series I would highly recommend. It has everything. Memorable characters, some you love some you don’t, great story lines that keep you gripped throughout , humour too. And all fantastically narrated as always by Angus King!
Thank you Ed James I loved this book so much.

I need No 7

I have just this minute finished Marshall No 6 and I honestly think that was the best so far. So many varied story threads running through the whole book , so many clever plot twists and changing characters. I loved it. Ed James has left us on a cliffhanger so January 2025 can’t come quickly enough. The second Shunty book is due out on my birthday so thank you Ed for my birthday present 😉. What can you say about the outstanding Angus King that hasn’t been said many many times before. If there was an Oscar for narration he would win it hands down.

The book was a brilliant listen and I can’t wait to get reacquainted with the team early next year.

Excellent

Complex and detailed (I had to rewind quite a few times especially as there are some similar names in this book - but it might be because I was ill in bed with shingles!), great action and loved the descriptions of Beltane in the region. Angus King stretched his skills from London to South African accents and, as ever, brought the characters to life.
Highly recommended.
