What to expect
After thirty years of service, former Chief Constable Bob Skinner faces the possible end of his police career, at its pinnacle.
A trip to Catalunya to contemplate his future soon takes on a different flavour when Skinner is asked by an friend, Xavier Aislado, to track down one of his business's brightest talents, vanished without a trace.
But it soon becomes clear that another manhunt is in progress, and that Skinner himself is the target. While his daughter Alex fights that battle at home, Skinner's own search takes one sinister turn after another, until he is faced with the toughest question of all:
Is natural justice sometimes the only answer?

Critics Review
-
Praise for Quintin Jardine: ‘If Ian Rankin is the Robert Carlyle of Scottish crime writers, then Jardine is surely its Sean Connery’
Glasgow Herald -
Remarkably assured, raw-boned, a tour de force
New York Times -
Well constructed, fast-paced, Jardine’s narrative has many an ingenious twist and turn
Observer -
Very engaging as well as ingenious, and the unraveling of the mystery is excellently done
Scotsman -
Deplorably readable
Guardian -
If you’re looking for a detective whose personal life is as active, contradictory and complicated as his job then follow the Edinburgh exploits of Deputy Chief Constable Bob Skinner in Quintin Jardine’s Skinner series
