A fiendish tale of passion, betrayal, and murder in Edinburgh, Scotland-from the master of French noir
Jean-Marie can't believe his luck when he has a passionate triste with a beautiful young Englishwoman, Marjory, who is holidaying in the Côte d'Azur. But when he discovers she is married, he is crestfallen. When she returns to her home in rainy Edinburgh, he is heartbroken. He decides to take the biggest gamble of his life: he follows her.
No sooner has Jean-Marie arrived in Scotland than his luck runs out. Marjory's husband is a jealous man-and a deadly encounter is only the beginning of a nightmarish, disorienting drama in the grey-granite labyrinth of the city.
