Summary
St Andrews, Scotland. When an elderly woman's naked body is found in her home, crucified to the floor, DCI Andy Gilchrist and his associate, DS Jessie Janes, find themselves in a hunt for a brutal serial killer. As the body count rises, suspicion falls on Tap 'Dancer' McCrear, a career criminal recently released from prison after serving 15 years for a murder he swore he never committed.
As Gilchrist begins to uncover the terrifying truth behind each of the killings, his worst fears are realised when he learns that McCrear is killing everyone involved in his murder trial...for it was Gilchrist who arrested McCrear all those years ago.
High-flying Detective Superintendent Rommie Frazier, who leads the multi-constabulary task force searching for McCrear, clashes with Gilchrist over the detail of the investigation and demands his removal. But Gilchrist won't leave without a fight, for he knows it is up to him to find Tap McCrear...before his own name is struck off the murder list.
Critic reviews
"Gripping and grisly, with plenty of twists and turns that race along with black humour." (Craig Robertson)
"Rebus did it for Edinburgh. Laidlaw did it for Glasgow. Gilchrist might just be the bloke to put St Andrews on the crime fiction map." (Daily Record)
"A truly gripping read, with all the makings of a classic series." (Mick Herron)
"DCI Gilchrist gets under your skin. Though, determined, and a bit vulnerable, this character will stay with you long after the last page." (Anna Smith)
"Gripping!" (Peterborough Telegraph)

Outstanding as always
I have been working my way through the Gilchrist series and this one had everything and more. The plot, the renegade Gilchrist and his loyal team. Some gore and suspense. But also a happy ending that leaves you with a smile and warmth for a character who deserves some personal happiness.
David Monteath is a pleasure to listen to as always.

Excellent, apart from one character.
I found this to be a gripping story, well written and well read. Rather gruesome, so not for the faint-hearted!
The only negative point for me was the main character's insipid girlfriend, who irritated me beyond belief. The book would have been better without her apart from her one major role in the story.
A good, beefy story, if you can cope with the weedy girlfriend.
Well read, with lots of different voices, accents and pitch.

Excellent storyline and narration
And barely a mention of boobs for a change. Disappointed that this is the last one at the mo. He still needs to reign his sidekick in though. She really isn’t a likeable character at all

Great story
Great story, great performance. I would recommend the author and narrator.
Although at times it is gruesome and can be sweary (bad language)

Had me hooked to the very end.
Although I somehow worked out the list it still was a very good listen. Looking forward to more of the same.😊

Brilliant as always.
You can always depend on a good twisty turny romp in this series. Enough blood and gore to make you wince, but it’s the smart prose that keeps you reading. Also Jessie is one of the best sidekicks ever.
