Murder at Christmas. A tragic New Year.

A novel in two parts.

Christmas Steps

On a cold Christmas Eve in Edinburgh, Detective Constable Scott Cullen investigates the gruesome murder of a local businessman.

Battling a brutal hangover and with the lure of a promotion dangled in front of him, Cullen has the lingering feeling his days as a cop might just be numbered.

Windchill

Cullen’s peaceful return from holiday is scuppered when the body of a barman is found with a knife in his gut.

What seems to be a straightforward case of violent jealousy soon reveals itself to have much darker links; revelations of mounting debts, out of control gambling and organised crime lead to the discovery of another body.

Cullen sets out to solve the murders, but can he untangle the web And will he get that promotion? Or be kicked out of the force?

Perfect for fans of Ian Rankin, Stuart McBride, Alex Smith, and JD Kirk, Liars and Thieves continues the best-selling Police Scotland series.
