Description

With cross-border relations between Westminster and Holyrood tense over nuclear policy, journalist Willie Morton investigates the death of anti-nuclear activist Angus McBain and begins to suspect he was killed for what he knew. Despite warnings and intimidation, he tries to prove UK Government collusion in the murder of McBain and conspiracy over illegal radioactive convoys heading to Dounreay. But can he keep clear of sinister, deadly forces in headlong pursuit across the Highlands, from Loch Ness to Arisaig, Oban, and across the treacherous Sound of Kerrera in the dark...? Trapped in a remote distillery in Bridge of Orchy, as bullets dent the copper stills, surely Morton's time is up...? "Convincing account of secret service skulduggery... Morton and his adversary, Daniel McGinley, are opposing halves of the Scottish psyche..." "Persuasive... and timely... politically-charged ..."
