Don?t stoke the flames unless you want to get burned . . .It?s not going well for Aberdeen''s NE Division: half the force is off sick, all leave has been cancelled, someone has firebombed a hotel full of migrants and there?s a massive protest march happening this Saturday.With officers dropping like flies, Detective Inspector Logan McRae has to kick off a major murder investigation with a skeleton staff of misfits, idiots and malingerers until the top brass can arrange back-up from other divisions.But, as bad as everything seems, things are about to get much, much worse . . .* * *Praise for Stuart MacBride:''Dark and brilliantly written'' ?
