Product Description

Product Description
Dr. Steven Dunbar works for Sci-Med Inspectorate, a multi-jurisdictional agency that investigates crimes bearing on any links to the world of science. He is therefore slightly bemused when the deathbed confession of a convicted psychopath lands on his desk. Until it emerges that another man has already been charged with the crime. A man whose medical research once sent shockwaves through the scientific community.Dr. David Little is nine years into his life sentence for the brutal rape and murder of thirteen-year-old Julie Summers. The evidence against him is indisputable: a perfect DNA match. When Steven is sent to Edinburgh to confirm the hoax, amongst the confusion, incompetency and deception that he encounters there, a new fear arises: that the confession is true. A case that has already destroyed so many lives is forced to reopen.Steven is determined to discover the truth, even if that means that he must think the unthinkable and the truth when it is finally revealed is more horrific than anyone could have imagined.

5.0 out of 5 stars Dr Dunbar IS Dr Blockbuster, 28 Sep 2005
Following on from The Gulf Conspiracy (no Roslin here!), The Eye of the Raven is Ken McClure's new book with Dr Steven Dunbar as the hero. How good was it ??? ... well I read it in 1.5 days on the beach, and I don't think I've read any book faster!!!

Dr Dunbar is an agent for Sci-Med, an elite government agency set up to deal with high tech crime in medicine and science. Hector Coombe, the baddie, confesses on his death bed to the rape and murder of a young girl. How can that be?? - an eminent scientist is already serving a life sentence and has been in jail for 9 years! There was a DNA match!!

Without giving away the story, this book is page turning stuff and at the end, Dunbar's special forces training comes to the fore!!!

What's in your garden shed?

5.0 out of 5 stars Another Excellent Read From Ken McClure, 4 Dec 2005
By H. MACDONALD "helenmacdonald3" (Fife, Scotland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Another highly enjoyable medical mystery featuring Dr Steven Dunbar. A death bed confession from a dangerous serial killer, leads Dunbar to suspect a grave miscarriage of justice has been done. Despite hostility to his investigation, he is determined to get to the truth.

McClure`s highly readable style of writing makes this another compelling entry in this series of books. Definitly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars ANOTHER FINE THRILLER FROM KEN MCCLURE !!!!, 1 Dec 2007
This review is from: The Eye of the Raven (Paperback)
This is the second Ken McClure book I have read in as many weeks and like Past Lives is fast paced and a real page turner.

It begins like the previous reviewer has said with a confession of the real killer of a young girl and the hero of the book Dr Steven Dunbar has to work out why he has confessed and how the convicted killer came to be so convicted and why he had so much overwhelming evidence against him.

Working out who is responsible is difficult and there are a lot of complicated clues, which for the more intelligent discerning reader, are pure joy. This book, more than any other I have read in some time (and believe me I have read quite a number) is a real informative clueful joy, I would go as far as to say it is like verbal sedoku if there was such a thing.

I highly recommend it, but warn you, you won't be able to put it down so don't start reading it at midnight!!!
