Rock 'n' roll never dies. But its stars do.When washed-up 80s rock legend Johnny Freestone is found dead in a cave off Scotland’s North Coast 500 tourist route, it looks like a tragic accident – another celebrity lost to a reckless lifestyle.

But detective – and secret Freestone fan – Jack Logan is convinced he was murdered. As Logan delves into Johnny’s final days, he uncovers a trail of bitter rivalries, broken promises, and a comeback tour that wasn’t quite what it seemed.

With the Highlands’ rugged beauty as a backdrop, Logan must navigate a web of secrets and lies that stretch from music studios to old flames – and find out who wanted Johnny silenced for good.

The gripping next instalment in the DCI Jack Logan series, perfect for fans of Ian Rankin, Val McDermid and Stuart Macbride.
