James Oswald

The body of a missing journalist is found in a sealed chamber of the mysterious catacombs at Gilmerton Cove. He appears to have been the victim of a macabre Masonic ceremony, his throat cut and arcane symbols scrawled on the walls in his blood. The occult nature of the case lands it squarely on Inspector Tony McLean's desk. But when another body turns up with a similarly baffling lack of forensics, McLean begins to suspect darker forces at work. Teamed up with the most unlikely and unwelcome allies, McLean struggles to solve this case before the killer can strike again.
