Sean Rooney, psychosleuth, and his wife, former DCI Jackie Kaminski move to the highlands of Scotland to escape the past, but has the past caught up with them, when their young son, Calum, is tragically murdered. Set in the north of Scotland in the village of Storaig, with a population of two hundred souls - where murder is unheard of but superstition and the supernatural thrives.

When the formal police investigation is shown to be fatally flawed, Rooney decides to pursue his son’s killer himself. This search takes him back to Glasgow, where, as a crime lord, better known as The Father, he made many enemies. 

The Son, the third in the Sean Rooney Psychosleuth series, the plot is thick, the pursuit is tortuous and the payoff terrifying.
