A SONG FOR THE DYING

The eighth Logan McRae novel in the No.1 bestselling crime series from Stuart MacBride.

 Every murder tells a story. But not every victim tells the truth. 

 'A terrific writer . McRae is a delight' The Times

 Sticks and stones may break your bones.

 The first body is chained to a stake: strangled, and stabbed, with a burning tyre around its neck. But is this a gangland execution or something much darker?

 Someone's leaving little knots of bones on DI Logan McRae's doorstep, but he's got bigger concerns. Rival drug gangs are fighting over product and territory; two teenage lovers are missing; someone's crippling Asian immigrants; and Logan's been lumbered with an ambitious new Detective Sergeant and gained the unwelcome attention of the local crime boss.

 When another body turns up, the similarities between these murders and the plot of a bestselling novel seem like more than just a coincidence. And perhaps those little knots of bones are more important than they look.

Close to the Bone

Écosse, paysages glacés de l'hiver avec pluies, neiges et verglas. C'est là, dans la petite ville d'Old Castle, qu'officie le détective Constable Ash Henderson. Sa tâche : retrouver le tueur en série que les tabloïds appellent le "Birthday Boy", sa spécialité étant de kidnapper des jeunes filles de moins de treize ans, de les torturer et, le jour de leur anniversaire, d'envoyer une carte postale à leurs parents pour les rendre fous. Flanqué d'Alice McDonald, une profileuse qui sombre dans l'alcool - sans avoir le vin gai - pour oublier les horreurs auxquelles elle est confrontée, Ash a enfin le ferme espoir de retrouver le monstre lorsque des restes des victimes sont découverts, ouvrant ainsi de nouvelles pistes de recherches. C'est qu'un terrible secret le motive : Rebecca, sa propre fille, a été enlevée par l'assassin. Le révéler à quiconque, c'est se voir viré de l'enquête et ça, il n'en est pas question pour lui. Livre dur, à la limite de l'insoutenable, Surtout, ne pas savoir nous plonge dans un univers où tueur et flic se côtoient sur les deux versants de la même horreur.

 Everyone deserves a second chance.

 Richard Knox has done his time and seen the error of his ways. He wants to leave his dark past behind, so why shouldn't he be allowed to live wherever he wants?

 Detective Sergeant Logan McRae isn't thrilled about having to help a violent rapist settle into Aberdeen. Even worse, he's stuck with the man who put Knox behind bars, DSI Danby, supposedly to 'keep an eye on things'.

 Only things are about to go very, very wrong.

 Edinburgh gangster Malk the Knife wants a slice of Aberdeen's latest development boom. Local crime lord Wee Hamish Mowat has ominous plans for Logan's future. And Knox's past isn't finished with him yet.

 'Stuart MacBride is a damned fine writer' Peter James

 Crime never sleeps.

 Down by the docks, in the dead of night, a woman is hunted down and killed. For DS Logan McRae, it's just the beginning of another nightmare.

 Neither does this killer.

 As the day dawns and the body count rises, Logan realises that this isn't just an isolated murder. It's far more disturbing than that.

 A killer is on the loose and wreaking havoc - and Logan is running out of time to stop them.

 And the clock is ticking .

 Praise for 'Dying Light':

 'Another brilliant, riveting police procedural. I'm green with envy!' R D Wingfield

 'The story is violent and bloody; some of the crimes are vicious and MacBride doesn't hold back on the details. But there is plenty of dark humour, and a warmth to the portrayal of the police officers which lightens an otherwise grim tale by this very talented writer' Susanna Yager, Sunday Telegraph
