18 - Aftershock
by Quintin Jardine
Until Sugar Dean is found dead on a local golf course, the police on DCC Bob Skinner's Edinburgh patch are having a quiet time. But that's about to change. There's something uncannily familiar about this murder, and it's making Bob Skinner nervous. The body has been 'laid out' in exactly the same way as the corpses of three young women in a previous case – a case that was solved. Is it just freakish coincidence? Could this be the work of a copycat killer? Or is it possible that the previous case isn't quite as closed as Skinner thought...
