Cross-border relations between Westminster and Holyrood are tense over nuclear policy as journalist Willie Morton investigates the death of anti-nuclear activist Angus McBain and begins to suspect he was killed for what he knew.

Was there UK Government collusion in the murder of McBain and conspiracy over illegal radioactive convoys heading to Dounreay? And can Morton keep clear of the sinister, deadly forces in headlong pursuit from Loch Ness to Arisaig and Oban, and across the treacherous Sound of Kerrera in the dark...? Trapped in a remote distillery at Bridge of Orchy, as bullets dent the copper stills, surely Morton's time is up...?

Andrew Scott's pacy political thrillers explore the uncertain and ambiguous terrain between a declining Britain and an emerging Scotland, in fast-moving novels that combine an insider's insight with all-too-believable scenarios set in beautiful locations in contemporary Scotland, England and Europe.
