The Lost Sister (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798849774695)

Dundonian Detective J McNee dives deep into the underworld of Scotland's fourth city in this gripping sequel to The Good Son...

Mary Furst is missing. The teenager, god-daughter of local hard man David Burns, was a good girl with no history of trouble.Could her God-father's illegal enterprises be connected to her disappearance?

Private investigator, J McNee doesn't want to get involved in the case. But when an eccentric fellow investigator with a strange connection to Mary claims that she's in danger, McNee soon discovers that the worst lies people tell are the ones to they intend to protect themselves, and that old secrets have a way of impacting on the present.

The second J McNee mystery "begins to open up McNee's psychological baggage" (Library Journal, starred review) adding new layers to the detective readers first met in Shamus-award shortlisted, "The Good Son".
