Visually the exterior appearance is still exceptional,and even internally,the book is in an exceptional condition/state of preservation and presentation.It is only the minor exterior faults described that prevent a slightly higher grading.Despite them,it really is an exceptional copy for brightness and cleanliness.
For the officer of Glasgow's P Division the routine duty of attending a stolen vehicle which has been abandoned deep in rural Lanarkshire becomes less routine when disturbed topsoil indicates that something faar more sinister has also been abandeoned.Sergeant Sussock recalls a similar incident some twenty-five years earlier - and to the horror of the investigators,the fields of Lanarkshire begin to give up their dead.
Forensic evidence indicates that the victims unearthed had all endured a period of captivity before being murdered,so when a separate inquiry into the sudden disappearance of a young boy becomes linked to the murder inquiry,the police realise that a serial killer is at work and that they are racing against time. . .
