The story continues . . . Lieb Canavan, the Procurator Fiscal, uncovers more about his wife's death and finds solace in a new companion, one who comes to him following her own horrendous incident. Marcus and Grace return from an Australian Xmas, and Grace rejoins the Detective Zone in a new capacity. In her new role as head of the Geographic Profiling Unit, Grace and Jon Addams use their new skills to identify previously uncaught criminals and help the team crack a disturbing new menace: the One Upmanship Club, a group of bored university students who amuse themselves by using the general population for entertainment. Be forewarned: once you start reading, it's almost impossible not to finish this novel in one sitting.
