'A must for crime-fiction fans' Amazon five-star review

'Classic Scottish noir: bad food, bad moods, too much booze and tight plots' @ey0k1, Twitter

Perfect for fans of Ian Rankin, Ed McBain and Christopher Brookmyre, Windchill, the sixth book in the Scott Cullen series, brings together two different cases for Cullen to solve, in the dark and gripping Scottish police procedural series that has set the bestseller charts alight.

A novel in two parts.

In "Christmas Steps", Detective Constable Scott Cullen investigates the gruesome murder of a businessman on a cold Christmas Eve in Edinburgh.

Then in "Windchill", Cullen's peaceful return from holiday is scuppered when the body of a barman is found with a knife in his gut. What seems to be a straightforward case of violent jealousy soon reveals itself to have much darker links; revelations of mounting debts, out of control gambling and organised crime lead to the discovery of another body.

With the carrot of promotion dangled in front of him, Cullen sets out to solve the murders, but can he untangle the web?
