'Invigoratingly complex . . . Brookmyre can be cripplingly infectious'
Daily Mirror
A malevolence has lain dormant for three decades, and private investigator Jasmine Sharp has no idea that she is about to unearth it. Jasmine has been hired to find Tessa Garrion, a woman who has vanished without a trace. And there are some who want it to stay that way.
As Jasmine is pulled into a hidden history of sex, drugs, ritualism and murder she finds the links between Glasgow's high society and the lowest depths of the underworld becoming clearer. Soon Jasmine realises that she may need a little help from the dark side herself if she's going to get to the truth.
'Shimmers with a sense of unfettered fun . . . [Brookmyre] is a master at juggling multiple storylines, protagonists and narrators . . . I'm already looking forward to the next Sharp-McLeod outing' Independent on Sunday
'[Brookmyre's characters] are excellent creations - complex, realistic characters full of everyday flaws and woes, and the reader can't help but feel empathy for both of them . . . yet another accomplished, smart and funny piece of crime writing, plotted and executed with no small amount of skill, style and craft' Doug Johnstone, Scotsman
