Glasgow Kiss

DCI Lorimer and DC Annie Irvine have been called out to search for a missing child. The young girl was snatched right off the street .

Meantime at the school in which Maggie Lorimer teaches, one of the students has accused the religious teacher of sexually assaulting her during the summer.  Maggie had seen an altercation between the girl and teacher the day before.  Could what she had said really be true?

Two days later DCI Lorimer is called out to a park where the body of a girl has been found.  It turns out to be a teenager; she who had accused her teacher.  Could her killer have been the teacher or the boy she was seen arguing with on CCTV?  The following day a skeleton of a girl is found in the same area, and it appears that she was killed in the same manner. But it isn't long before more bodies are found in the same area, all killed in the same manner.

Will Lorimer and his team be able to apprehend the killer before he kills again?  And what if the missing child.  Is she lying dead somewhere because the team has been forced to focus on the deaths of the young women?

Author Alex Gray's murder mystery is hard to put down.  It plays on the mind of a parent, although I am sure that the reader of murder mysteries will thoroughly enjoy it.
