Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 006052524X, Mass Market Paperback)Newly appointed Detective Inspector Gemma James has never thought to question her friend Hazel Cavendish about her past. So it is quite a shock when Gemma learns that their holiday retreat to a hotel in the Scottish Highlands is, in fact, Hazel's homecoming -- and that fellow guest Donald Brodie was once Hazel's lover, despite a vicious, long-standing feud between their rival, fine whiskey distilling families.

So it is quite a shock when Gemma learns that their holiday retreat to a hotel in the Scottish Highlands is, in fact, a homecoming for native daughter Hazel - and an event that has provoked strong reactions from the small community. Something is definitely amiss - and that something is quite possibly Donald Brodie, the charming if intense Scotsman who is a guest as well."."The truth comes out before long: Hazel and Brodie were once lovers, despite a vicious, long-standing feud between their families, rival local distillers of fine whiskey.

Hazel is the logical suspect, but Gemma knows nothing is simple in this place of secrets and long-seething lovers, despite a vicious, long-evidence piles up against the friend Gemma never truly knew, the investigation into Hazel and Brodie's history begins to take darker, more sinister and tumultuous turns. Gemma knows she will need assistance to unravel this bloody knot - and so she calls the one man she trusts more than any other, Duncan Kincaid, to join her far from home ... and in harm's way."--BOOK JACKET.… (more) |
