Product Description

Product Description

A four-day tournament involving the world's leading golfers is being staged to mark the opening of a new country club created on the Marquis of Kinture's East Lothian estate. But on the previous Sunday afternoon, one of Kinture's business partners is found dead in his private jacuzzi in the clubhouse - with his throat cut. The next day an anonymous letter is received by the local newspaper, containing a fragment of a legendary witches' curse upon anyone who desecrates their place of worship. For Assistant Chief Constable Bob Skinner, the key to the murder is surely to be found in the here and now rather than in East Lothian's grisly past as a notorious centre for witchcraft. But then a second murder occurs, this time by water, and soon Skinner is facing the most challenging case of his career.

4.0 out of 5 stars Up to the standard of other Skinner books but..., 6 April 2000
By A Customer
...the ending! Unfair to give it away but a bit of a let down on the final few pages only. The rest of the story is an excellent crime story. Great characters and, for a Scottish exile, it's great to see all the 'old places' get a mention. Make sure you read the Skinner books in sequence.
