Publisher's Synopsis
The wreck of the Knockhaven lifeboat with the loss of all three of its crew is a hard blow for the small Scottish town, but it's harder still when DS Tam MacNee discovers that it isn't simply a tragic accident. Was it just the act of vandals, bored in a fishing port stricken with unemployment? Could it be linked to the drugs trade? Or is there someone who, in their determination to kill one person, is callous enough to take two innocent lives? With a whole community hungry for justice, DI Marjory Fleming investigates, and the pressure - professional and personal - is on.
