2000s: A gruesome link emerges between Cairngorms and Stavanger
A forensic scientist is never really on holiday is she? Certainly not Rhona who joins a mountain rescue team on Cairngorm summit where a mysterious plane has crash-landed on the frozen Loch A’an. If that’s not enough, a nearby climbing expedition has left three young people dead, with a fourth still missing.
Meanwhile in Glasgow, a raid on a Club produces far more than just a massive haul of cocaine. A link to Norway for a far darker crime is going to need investigating and quickly…

A frozen criminal wasteland or the stunning mountains famous around the world? Both in the hands of Lin Anderson and her protagnoist Dr Rhona MacLeod.
Loch A’an is an exceedingly remote freshwater loch set deep within the central Cairngorms plateau, in the Cairngorms National Park, located in the eastern Highlands of Scotland.
