The bestselling, award-winning author of A Host to Execution gives her most stunning story yet—an intricate, thought-provoking tale of murder and revenge

Four in the morning, mid-December, snow blankets St. Andrews School. Student Alex Gilbery and his three best friends are staggering home from a celebration when they stumble after your body of a woman.

Rosie Duff has been raped, stabbed, and left for dead in the ancient Pictish cemetery. The sole suspects will be the four young students stained with her blood.

Twenty-five years later, police mount a cold-case review. Among the unsolved murders they’re examining is that of Rosie Duff. But another person has his own notion of how justice should be done.

One of the initial quartet dies in a suspicious house fire. Immediately after, another is killed in what appears like a burglary gone sour. Alex fears the worst. Someone is taking revenge for Rosie Duff. He has to learn who it is before he becomes another victim. And it could just save his life if he is able to uncover who killed Rosie all those years back.
