When DI Bob Valentine returns to duty after a narrow escape with death, he is faced with the discovery of a corpse on a kitchen table with a horrific neck wound and a mystery surrounding the victim's missing partner and her daughter. It's all too close to his own near-fatal stabbing.

When the murder investigation begins to reveal a tragic family drama, Bob Valentine struggles to deal with the rapidly unfolding events and the terrifying visions that haunt him. As he starts to uncover the illicit secrets of the family's past, can he keep a grip on the case and on his own sanity before the body count starts to rise?

A few days ago I listened to my first Tony Black, Artifacts of the dead and absolutely LOVED it - I was gripped and hooked. Last evening I downloaded this second book in the series and I've just finished listening to the entire story in one day whilst completing boring chores and it was equally brilliant, gripping and enthralling..... I need more, the next one, I am addicted! So well written, so balance between the gritty, dirty and dangerous life of a Scottish Detective and the vulnerable, tender reflections and responsibilities of a true Family Man with the added element of sixth sense happenings steming from his earlier briefly dead moments following his being stabbed.....it's going to change your perceptions of life and it certainly has for DI Bob Valentine! Keep writing them Tony Black and NEVER change your Audio book performer of the BRILLIANT Garth Cruickshank who IS the characters you created!

DI Bob Valentine is a man with tender true grit, beautifully written and perform with outstanding excellence.
