WHAT LIES BURIED (PB)

Following the success of Shadow Man, this is the second compulsive novel in the DI Lukas Mahler series set against the dark underbelly of Inverness's criminal world. A skeleton is discovered, buried deep in the earth, on a construction site. That's nothing new in the Highlands where bones are often discovered in the old graves of Picts and Vikings - but it's not the skull itself that makes the crew stop in horror - it's the bullet hole above the eye-socket.
