The Cursed Road

By Laura McCluskey

 

Don’t miss this gripping atmospheric mystery set in the Scottish highlands

ON THE CURSED ROAD EVERY STEP COULD BE YOUR LAST

Deep in the Scottish Highlands, the body of a young woman is found on the cursed road, a narrow track with a bloody history.

It initially looks like an accident, but a name scratched on the dead woman’s arm links to an unsolved case from years ago.

Glaswegian detectives Georgina Lennox and Richard Stewart are sent north to investigate, and they discover a community riven by a centuries’ old blood feud and modern rivalries.

As George and Richie attempt to get to the truth behind the dark rumours, a killer is waiting, determined that some secrets are never uncovered.
