Andrew Mackay is found sitting beside a corpse with the murder weapon in his hand and blood on his clothes. Across town, the dig to unearth a bog body leads to the discovery of another dead missing person.
Despite the evidence, amateur sleuth Aileen Mackinnon believes Andrew's innocent. She won't rest until she catches the real murderer.
After nearly losing his job, DI Callan Cameron doubles down on his cases. Finding his best friend's body is turning out to be a mammoth task he didn't expect. With two murders, a drug case and a missing person, Callan is swamped.
Aileen and Callan struggle to find answers, and time's running out. Who bludgeoned the lad to death? And why are they framing Andrew for it?
