Whether or not you’re already a fan of detective chief inspector Karen Pirie, the tenacious fictional head of Scotland’s cold-case unit, you’ll end up following her anywhere as she investigates the connections between a comatose teen, a terrorist attack, and an unsolved murder, in a thriller as steely and superlative as its heroine.
