DSI William Lorimer finally takes a proper holiday, choosing Zimbabwe at the suggestion of his friend Daniel Kohi, a former Zimbabwean police inspector now rebuilding his life in Glasgow. It should be rest. Instead, old enemies from Daniel's past resurface on both continents, and the Lorimers find themselves further from safety than they ever expected on their travels. Back in Scotland, a murder investigation draws uncomfortably close to Daniel's own front door. Gray trades her usual Glasgow fog for African sun without losing an ounce of menace. A holiday read with real teeth.
