The body of a prostitute is found at Glasgow's Queen Street Station, her hands, pointing towards her feet, placed as if in prayer, a small flower pressed between the palms. Psychologist Solomon Brightman is called to asist DCI Lorimer in the murder hunt, with the hope that his lateral thinking will shine a light on the case.

A taut, suspense-filled thriller taking the reader on a gripping journey from the inner city to the wilds of the Outer Hebrides.
