When a building site foreman is found with a nail driven through his temple, DI Grant McKenzie knows a ruthless killer is at large in Edinburgh.

But everyone who knew the dead man seems to be hiding something. And, as the body count rises and suspects multiply, McKenzie and his team find themselves in a desperate race to catch a merciless murderer—before The Scaffold Killer claims his next victim. And the deeper they dig, the clearer it becomes: this killer isn’t only callous… they’re sending a message.

When a woman is found strangled in the locked boiler room outside her home, all evidence points to her husband.

The only key to the boiler room hangs in their kitchen.
The only fingerprints on the door are his.
The only prints on her body are his.

But he swears he didn’t kill her.

As her colleagues prepare their files for the CPS, Detective Inspector Yvonne Giles begins to suspect a connection to another chilling case in a nearby community—a woman found strangled in her loft, her husband now serving time for her murder.

Could a devious serial killer be framing innocent men for the “Latch Murders”? Yvonne must act quickly before another life is taken—and another innocent person pays the price.
