What to expect

As women disappear from the city streets, a blood-curdling discovery is made in a Glasgow cemetery. Easy Kill is the fifth novel in Lin Anderson's forensic crime series featuring Rhona MacLeod.

'One of the most satisfying characters in modern crime fiction' – Daily Mail


A vulnerable young woman has been brutally slain and left on a grave in Glasgow’s sprawling cemetery, the Necropolis. Upon examining the body, forensic scientist Rhona MacLeod has no doubt that the depraved killer’s motives were sexual in nature.

The case takes on an even more disturbing dimension when the removal of the girl’s body reveals a second victim, who has recently been buried in a shallow grave underneath. When yet another sex worker is reported missing, there are fears that a serial killer is at large in the city.

This man has killed before – and will again unless Rhona can break the chain and track him down before any more lives are lost . . .

'Vivid and atmospheric, with an enthralling chase' – The Guardian

'The best Scottish crime series since Rebus' – Daily Record


Easy Kill is the fifth book in the Rhona MacLeod series by Lin Anderson. It is followed by Final Cut.

Readers love Easy Kill:

'Book 5 and still feels as fresh as the 1st book'
'A fast-paced thriller filled with heroics and horrors'
'Totally hooked, can't put them down'

Perfect for fans of Ian Rankin, Martina Cole and Silent Witness.

A cast of characters who feel like old friends

Lin Anderson is one of Scotland’s national treasures – don’t be fooled by comparisons, her writing is unique, bringing warmth and depth to even the seediest parts of Glasgow. Lin’s Rhona MacLeod is a complex and compelling heroine who just gets better with every outing
