Summary

In the pale grey light of a chilly February, Aberdeen is not at its best. There's a rapist prowling the city's cold granite streets, leaving a string of tortured women behind. But while DS Logan McRae's girlfriend is out acting as bait, he's dealing with the blood-drenched body of an unidentified male, dumped outside Accident and Emergency.

When a stash of explicit films turn up, all featuring the victim, it looks as if someone in the local bondage community has developed a taste for violent death, and Logan gets dragged into the twilight world of pornographers, sex-shops, and S&M. To make matters worse, when they finally arrest the Granite City Rapist, Grampian Police are forced by the courts to let him go: Aberdeen Football Club's star striker has an alibi for every attack.

Could they really have got it so badly wrong? Logan thinks so, but the trick will be getting anyone to listen before the real rapist strikes again. Especially as his girlfriend, PC Jackie 'Ball Breaker' Watson, is convinced the footballer is guilty, and she's hell-bent on a conviction at any cost.

Written and read just brilliantly. I love the series and the humour contained is an added bonus, Sessions reads it with his portrayal of characters in his superbly comical fashion. Very highly recommend.

The story continues as Logan takes on the criminal world of Aberdeen. However, this time things come a little bit closer time. Steel is there in her normal, irreverent and sharp tongue way.
Many of the other characters from books one and two Appear as well.
Great story, narration OK a good addition to the series. BUT don’t buy the abridged version. A lot of the character interaction is missed.

Book 3 in the series of Logan McRae books.
