Mothers of the Disappeared Russel D McLean

Suspended from the Association of British Investigators and facing an enquiry into his alleged misconduct over four years previously, J McNee's career hangs in the balance. The last thing he needs is new business. But when the mother of a murdered child asks him to re-open a case he helped close during his time in the police, McNee can't refuse. Is the wrong man serving a life sentence for a series of brutal murders? And, if so, why did he admit his guilt before the court? As McNee searches for answers, he finds himself forced to make a terrifying moral choice: one that will change his life forever. The fourth in the J McNee series "orchestrates the diverse strands of [its] plot ingeniously" (Maxim Jakubowski) as it takes the Dundee detective to the very edges of his own morality, setting the stage for the final book in the sequence, Cry Uncle."A sharp new talent..."
