A woman with no name, a reckoning with the past, a present fraught with danger.

In the most remote spot of the hills surrounding Loch Tay, a womans remains were found. She had lay there a while, but any evidence of who she was had long gone or never existed. Crime podcaster Cal Lovett seeks to put Hillside Jane to rest, but is he merely running from his own troubles

With the wife of his sisters alleged killer missing and a sense that any chance he had of getting justice for Margot is slipping from his grasp, Cal is at a crossroads. Perhaps peace for Hillside Jane will soothe his own fears. But events in the village dont bring the results anyone expected. Is Cal so stuck in the past that he wont spot the risk he faces in the here and now

A gripping instalment of the bestselling Scottish crime series from Bloody Scotland Debut Prize for Scottish Crime-shortlisted author Heather Critchlow. Perfect for fans of Jane Casey, Claire Douglas and Neil Lancaster.
