The Special Dead, Hardback Book

The Special Dead Hardback

Part of the Rhona Macleod series

Hardback

Description

The Special Dead is the thrilling tenth book in Lin Anderson's Rhona MacLeod series. When Mark Howitt is invited back to Leila's flat and ordered to strip, he thinks he's about to have the experience of his life.

Waking later he finds Leila gone from his side. Keen to leave, he opens the wrong door and finds he's entered a nightmare; behind the swaying Barbie dolls that hang from the ceiling is the body of the girl he just had sex with. Rhona Macleod's forensic investigation of the scene reveals the red plaited silk cord used to hang Leila to be a cingulum, a Wiccan artefact used in sex magick.

Sketches of sexual partners hidden in the dolls provide a link to nine powerful men, but who are they? As the investigation continues, it looks increasingly likely that other witches will be targeted too. Working the investigation is the newly demoted DS Michael McNab, who is keen to stay sober and redeem himself with Rhona, but an encounter with Leila's colleague and fellow Wiccan Freya Devine threatens his resolve.

Soon McNab realizes Freya may hold the key to identifying the men linked to the dolls and the Nine will do anything to keep their identities a secret.
