Jim Daley and Brian Scott are kept busy investigating multiple cases that arise at the same time. When a small aeroplane crash lands at Machrie Aiport the bodies of two dead men are discovered on board. It is soon obvious that the men were dead before take-off requiring many questions to be answered. Then Hamish disappears while out on his boat and a full scale search is implemented to find him. Meanwhile Chief Superintendant Carrie Symmington is being threatened by someone from her past. While Jim Daley and Brian Scott attempt to solve these cases, Iolo Harris from MI5 arrives on the scene to investigate possible links to environmental terrorists who are thought to be operating in the area.
There is much tension in this book as the investigations proceed interspersed with humour from time to time. Some of the action occurs across the waters in County Antrim. Although matters appear to be resolved, at the end of the novel the detectives do not have all of the answers they want. They are only too aware of cover-ups being implemented and there is nothing they can do about it.
Another excellent book from Denzil Meyrik, a great story teller.
