McNamara a pornit din nou la vânătoare. O sinucidere aparentă îl conduce pe detectiv la un complot terorist. Oare ce va face el când viața femeii pe care o iubește este amenințată?
McNamara, un inspector detectiv șef scoțian, se luptă cu crimele de pe străzile din Edinburgh și din suburbiile orașului.

Dan este un tip comod cu o înclinație pentru femei. Motto-ul lui este destul de simplu: cu cât mai multe, cu atât mai bine.

5.0 out of 5 stars enjoyed it May 18, 2018 Format: Kindle Edition This is a interesting sort of book, a book that I did not think I would enjoy, but I really did. There was a lot to like - the storyline was intriguing, the characters multi facet and believable, a romance and a mystery. The story takes you straight in, and has more meat in the character department then most mysteries.. There are two stories in this book, the firs one being full length and the second more like a short story which follows the romance |
