Dead Catch
When Joe Christie’s fishing boat is swept onto Tentsmuir beach during a fierce storm, a man’s mutilated body is found in the hold. DCI Andy Gilchrist of St Andrews CID is called in to investigate. But his murder investigation deepens when he learns that Joe Christie and his boat have been missing for three years.
The police pathologist retrieves a five pound note from the deceased’s throat. Is this the killer’s calling card? The dead man is found to have been on the payroll of Big Jock Shepherd, Scotland’s premier crime patriarch, and when three more of Shepherd’s men turn up brutally murdered, Gilchrist fears a tectonic shift in the criminal underworld – and comes face to face with a man for whom human life means nothing.
