A complicated case going on with someone turning witness and under threat, an ethical hacker working with the Police in Scotland trying to find a leak and a corrupt policeman and a young student found murdered and his best friend missing.
Detective Clare has her hands full. The workload is heavy and all the cases are ongoing and have to be sorted out as quickly as possible. The links between the murdered student and the witness turning against her husband came out almost three quarter of the way through the story so the strands were not pulled together till the end. Each story was distinct but the way they were brought together was very good reading and wonderful detective work.
The hacker was another piece of magic and the ending was totally unexpected and out of the blue. It was excellent writing.
I loved the various bits of the story - the touch of a romance was just that - a light touch but it did add a bit of lightness to an otherwise sober read.

I like the sound of this. Having a well written mystery with a touch of light romance sounds perfect.
