Information

Everything is going well for journalist Paddy Meehan. She finally has a flat of her own, and the job she always wanted, as one of Scotland's leading newspaper columnists. Then the police knock at her door with the news that her former lover, Terry, has been found in a ditch, shot through the head. Even though they'd split up months before, Paddy is down as the next of kin, and has been left everything, including a box of notebooks...As Paddy tries to uncover what it was Terry wanted her to discover, it soon becomes clear that he was about to expose a secret. A secret worth killing for. And Paddy is next in line...

"Mina infuses the city with human warmth and social realism; dialogue is convincingly street-witty and Paddy is an endearing heroine."
-- "The Times"
"Uncompromisingly real. . . . Another fine book from Mina, and in Paddy Meehan, she has created a touching and loving heroine."
-- "Sunday Telegraph"
"Paddy Meehan is the most unlikely, and most realistic, investigator in recent crime fiction . . ."
--" Wall Street Journal"

"From the Hardcover edition."
