About this ebook

The second crime thriller in the No.1 bestselling Logan McRae series from Stuart MacBride.

Even the darkest crimes will come to light...

‘Stuart MacBride is a damned fine writer’ Peter James

Crime never sleeps.

Down by the docks, in the dead of night, a woman is hunted down and killed. For DS Logan McRae, it’s just the beginning of another nightmare.

Neither does this killer.

As the day dawns and the body count rises, Logan realises that this isn’t just an isolated murder. It’s far more disturbing than that.

A killer is on the loose and wreaking havoc – and Logan is running out of time to stop them.

And the clock is ticking ...

Praise for ‘Dying Light’:

‘Another brilliant, riveting police procedural. I'm green with envy!’ R D Wingfield

‘The story is violent and bloody; some of the crimes are vicious and MacBride doesn’t hold back on the details. But there is plenty of dark humour, and a warmth to the portrayal of the police officers which lightens an otherwise grim tale by this very talented writer’ Susanna Yager, Sunday Telegraph

Pretty good, they're getting better. The body count in this and previous books is too far fetched, and the final few chapters all seem to make the plot feel a little rushed, but compared to some I've read recently this one deserves five stars. DS MCRae also deserves a promotion for his clear up rate, - he must get a public commendation at least. On to the next one.

Fantastic read. Time to bring in a new DCI to take Steel down a peg or two, about time she treated her staff with respect and not like idiots only there to make her cups of tea and coffee. A woman so appalling in manner, who goes through life, farting, sleeping, smoking, and taking all the credit for other officer's work, maybe the next 20 years on foot patrol will teach her some respect for other's. Bags I get the job of telling her who is boss?
