The Low Road - Alex Walters

Step into the shadows of the Scottish Highlands, where no one is as innocent as they seem, and the path to the truth could be the most dangerous journey yet...

When a string of fatal accidents on the notorious A9 road catches the attention of DI Alec McKay, he uncovers something far more sinister than just bad luck. As the body count rises, McKay stumbles onto a decades-old conspiracy involving corruption and a murder case that should've been buried a long time ago.

But the deeper McKay digs, the more dangerous the game becomes. A shadowy killer is systematically eliminating anyone who knows the truth, and McKay may be next. Racing against time, with his closest allies compromised and a relentless killer lurking, McKay must navigate a web of deception and betrayal where every answer leads to more deadly questions...

Dark, gritty, and full of unexpected twists, this Scottish crime thriller is perfect for fans of Ian Rankin's atmospheric mysteries.
