Live Bait
Newly-promoted to the rank of detective superintendent in the elite Scottish crime squad, Colin Thane gets his first case when a hit-and-run victim is identified as being a top-end errand boy in the European drug scene. Thane’s assignment is to find out where exactly the drugs are being made – and that’s where the going gets tough.
