The Darkness

For Andrew Davidson, tragedy marks a turning point... He's a conscientious, respected G.P. but when his brother is found with his throat cut, his thoughts turn to anger and revenge. Known villains, who've managed to evade justice thanks to the efforts of one of Cairnburgh's cleverest lawyers, begin to disappear. For Rhona Kirk getting on with her life means taking control... A victim of rape, she starts a new life in Dundee but finds it difficult to shake off her past, and the men she's connected with also go missing. When the threats start, she accepts help even though she knows it's probably not a good idea. For DCI Jack Carston, putting the puzzle pieces together is a race against time... He searches for the links between all these vanished persons, aware all the time of his own darker impulses and sensing the strong bond between himself and the vigilante. What he finds is beyond even his worst imaginings. Will Justice remain blind when darkness seeps into the soul?
