We are delighted to welcome Scottish tartan noir author Lin Anderson to Dennistoun Library. Lin will discuss her new novel Whispers of the Dead, the 18th book in her bestselling crime series featuring forensic scientist Dr Rhona MacLeod.
In the dead of night, a man’s
body is found strapped to a chair in Glasgow’s Elder Park, his identity
unknown. As forensic scientist Rhona MacLeod examines the scene, the violence
on display suggests a gangland feud could be the cause. At the post-mortem, a
bullet engraved with a snake’s head is found in the man’s stomach, lending
weight to the theory.
Elsewhere in the city, a major
Hollywood movie is being filmed. But shooting comes to a standstill when its
lead actor is reported missing. As the news spreads, Police Scotland believe
the two cases may be connected.
DS Michael McNab thinks the key to finding those responsible could be the film itself. A storyline playing out in real-life on the streets of Glasgow with a killer intent on revenge at any cost. A vendetta which must be paid in blood . . .
