ONLY THE MOORLAND HIDES THE MACABRE...

Consultant surgeon Tora Hamilton has moved to remote Shetland to be with her husband. She moved to have a family....

Not for this . . . In the peat soil near her new home she uncovers a perfectly preserved woman's body. Runic symbols are carved into her skin. Her heart has been cut out.

And as Tora begins to ask questions around the island, she receives her first threat . . .

Critics Review

  • Inspired by an eerie ancient legend, Sacrifice is a chilling, mesmerising debut thriller. S. J. Bolton is one to watch

    TESS GERRITSEN, bestselling author of Vanish and The Mephisto Club

  • Part forensic-thriller, part medical-thriller, Sacrifice combines both elements to great effect in
    this atmospheric and original debut

    SIMON BECKETT, author of The Chemistry of Death

  • This slick, fast moving thriller has a cracking opening scene and goes on to develop into a gripping story of intrigue and adventure . . . An interesting and skilful debut
