About this listen

A missing schoolgirl. A haunted detective. An enthralling mystery.

When Mandy Gibson, a teenage schoolgirl, disappears in the affluent East Lothian town of North Berwick, DC Scott Cullen finds himself caught in the cross-fire of competitive police politics. When her body is found, the heartbroken parents don’t hesitate to point the finger of suspicion at young Jamie Cook, a tearaway teen with a long history of run-ins with the police. But where is he now?

\When the victim’s and the suspect’s families are revealed to belong to an offshoot group of the Catholic Church run by an excommunicated priest, Cullen quickly realises that the key to catching the killer is finding out the darkest secrets of this close-knit community, one family at a time.

For fans of Ian Rankin, Ed McBain and Christopher Brookmyre, Devil in the Detail is the third novel in the gritty Police Scotland police procedural series that has set the best-seller charts alight.
