A dark Scottish island crime thriller featuring a compelling and brilliant female detective, a brutal murder, and a close-knit community where everyone has something to hide.
Home is where the lies are buried.
On the remote Hebridean island of South Uist, its rugged tranquillity is shattered by a brutal murder on a deserted beach.
In desperate need of local knowledge, Uist-born Detective Constable Mairead Maclean is sent to investigate. Long estranged from the island, she is forced back to the place she once called home and to a past she would rather forget.
But as Mairead rekindles old friendships and hostilities, she uncovers a network of deception and scandal that could shatter the close-knit community.
They have been harbouring more than just long-buried secrets.
Someone is watching Mairead's every move. They have already killed to keep the past buried, and they're ready to do it again.
The Long Isle is the gripping first novel in a haunting new Scottish crime series, perfect for readers of Peter May and Ann Cleeves, and lovers of atmospheric police procedurals and dark island noir.
