The Linklater family arrive on the remote Scottish Isle of Sulla with a plan to build a self-sufficient commune and wait for what they are sure is the inevitable apocalypse with other like-minded survivalists. Instead, tragedy strikes and the family's teenage daughter is found dead. The close-knit island community is horrified—and suspicion quickly falls on the people who raised her.
Elspeth Laird is also considering a new beginning on Sulla but knows from past experience that the island is wary of outsiders. Everyone on Sulla is trying to make sense of the tragedy surrounding the Linklaters and Elspeth discovers that life on Sulla demands connection, not isolation. Yet the closer she grows to the people around her, the more dangerous the truth becomes. Someone on this small island is capable of murder and closeness can bring community but it can also be deadly—and Elspeth may already be too close to escape.
Raye Anderson is a Scots Canadian who now calls Manitoba's Interlake home. She is the author of the Roxanne Calloway Mystery series and the Elspeth Laird Mystery Series. Her first novel, And We Shall Have Snow, was shortlisted for the CWC Best Crime First Novel and the WILLA Literary Award for Original Softcover Fiction.
