About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

Get ready to be addicted to the page-turning new mystery thriller from Scottish crime author, Eva Macrae, perfect for fans of Stuart MacBride, Happy Valley, and Denzil Meyrick.

She bought a return ticket. She never came back…

When Holly Campbell’s body is found on the train tracks at Glasgow Central, police quickly rule it a suicide.

She’d had a troubled past. She’d tried before.

But Sergeant May Mackay can’t let one detail go. If Holly never wanted to come home, why did she buy a return ticket?

Driven by her own haunting loss and a promise to Holly’s grieving mother, May is determined to solve the mystery.

But the deeper she digs, the more sinister the truth becomes.

Someone is hiding a terrible secret. And they’ll do whatever it takes to keep it buried.

Even if it means silencing May for good…

It’s a long time since I enjoyed a book as much as this. Great characters with plausible interactions. A wealth of knowledge about crime, social deprivation and the law.
Some great humour.
An excellent plot which was unpredictable.
Can’t wait for the next one.

I found it a slow start over glossed in detail, too little happening with too much irrelevance and the culprit increasingly obvious
