Synopsis

A woman has gone missing in Aberdeenshire without a trace until her clothes and purse are found three days later inside a stone circle. With a bad influenza epidemic hitting Police Scotland, Chief Constable David Hamilton calls on the help of two of his former employees, now private detectives, to lend a hand. Mick Malone and Jock McDuff are called in only to find that the case seems to have ties to a murder that happened two years earlier. The problem with the connection is that that the convicted murderer is in prison serving out a life sentence. As Mick and Jock dig deeper, they find that both cases seem to revolve around the mysterious magic of an ancient order of the occult. This, the fifth Mick Malone Mystery, takes Mick and Jock on an adventure through some of Scotland’s most mystical places to find a cold-blooded murderer. And as the story unfolds, even they are surprised by the answers it reveals about what pushes a human being to murder.

About this title

About the Author

Sallee Peterson was born in Columbus, Ohio at the Ohio State University hospital. As a result, the Ohio State fight song is the first song she ever learned to sing. At six years old, her family moved to the San Francisco Bay Area, which has been her home base ever since. She financed her college education by taking a job at Intel Corporation, when the company was only 5 years old and continued working in high tech companies for many years. During that time, she was fortunate enough to live in the U.K. for two years and spent considerable time traveling throughout Europe and Asia. Sallee has always been drawn to the arts, writing and oil painting since she was a young child. Sallee especially likes a good mystery in the cozy style and loves to be pulled into mystery series so she can really get to know the characters. Sallee lives with her husband and enjoys spending time with her son, daughter, granddaughter and her sisters and brother. When not writing, Sallee is golfing, gardening, cooking (and eating), and doing her part to keep the economy strong by helping the retail industry thrive.
