關於本電子書
On an isolated Scottish island, a secretive community is forced to face the darkness of its past. None but the Dead is the thrilling eleventh book in Lin Anderson's forensic crime series featuring Rhona MacLeod.
'One of the most satisfying characters in modern crime fiction' – Daily Mail
Sanday, one of Britain's northernmost islands. Inaccessible when the wind prevents the ferry crossing, or fog grounds the tiny, island-hopping plane. When human remains are discovered at an old primary school, Rhona MacLeod and her assistant are dispatched to excavate the grave.
In Glasgow, the suspicious death of an older man appears to have links to the island – and DS Michael McNab arrives to investigate. Desperately uncomfortable in such surroundings, he finds that none of the tools of detective work are there. No internet, no CCTV, and no police station.
As the weather closes in, the team – including criminal profiler and Orkney native Professor Magnus Pirie – are presented with a series of unexplained incidents, apparently linked to the discovery of thirteen magic flowers representing the souls of dead children who had attended the primary school. But how and in what circumstance did they die? And why are their long-forgotten deaths significant to the current investigation?
As a major storm approaches, bringing gale-force winds and high seas, the islanders turn on one another. As past and present evil deeds collide, long-buried secrets will break to the surface . . .
'The best Scottish crime series since Rebus' – Daily Record
None but the Dead is the eleventh book in the Rhona MacLeod series by Lin Anderson. It is followed by Follow the Dead.
Readers love None but the Dead:

Perfect for fans of Ian Rankin, Martina Cole and Silent Witness.
