    Het is een doodstille zondagavond in een rustige buitenwijk van Glasgow. De televisie staat aan en het avondeten wordt bereid. Maar de vredige rust wordt wreed verstoord als een gedeukte vrachtwagen voor de deur van een van de huizen stopt. Twee gewapende mannen met bivakmutsen springen eruit en stormen het huis binnen, bedreigen de bewoners met een pistool en eisen geld, veel geld. Verbijsterd zeggen de familieleden dat ze zoveel geld niet bezitten. De overvallers kidnappen de grootvader en verdwijnen in de nacht. De ervaren politievrouw Alex Morrow krijgt opdracht de mysterieuze zaak te onderzoeken. Wie waren deze mannen? En waarom denken ze dat een ogenschijnlijk normaal huishouden zoveel geld heeft te verbergen? De familieleden hebben er in elk geval nooit iets over losgelaten. Als Morrow zich verder in de zaak verdiept, komt ze allerlei diep verborgen geheimen op het spoor.

    When a notorious millionaire banker hangs himself, his death attracts no sympathy. But the legacy of a lifetime of selfishness is widespread, and the carnage most acute among those he ought to be protecting: his family. Meanwhile, in a wealthy suburb of Glasgow, a young woman is found savagely murdered. The community is stunned by what appears to be a vicious, random attack. When Detective Inspector Alex Morrow, heavily pregnant with twins, is called in to investigate, she soon discovers that a tangled web of lies lurks behind the murder. It's a web that will spiral through Alex's own home, the local community, and ultimately right back to a swinging rope, hundreds of miles away. The End of the Wasp Season is an accomplished, compelling and multi-layered novel about family's power of damage-and redemption.

    A "thrilling" (Christian Science Monitor), "thoughtful"(New York Times Book Review), and "piercing" (People) Detective Inspector Alex Morrow novel by the author of Conviction. It's the week before Christmas when a lone robber bursts into a busy Glasgow post office carrying an AK-47. An elderly man suddenly hands his young grandson to a stranger and wordlessly helps the gunman fill bags with cash, then carries them to the door. He opens the door and bows his head; the robber fires off the AK-47, tearing the grandfather in two. DS Alex Morrow arrives on the scene and finds that the alarm system had been disabled before the robbery. Yet upon investigation, none of the employees can be linked to the gunman. And the grandfather-a life-long campaigner for social justice-is above reproach. As Morrow searches for the killer, she discovers a hidden, sinister political network. Soon it is chillingly clear: no corner of the city is safe, and her involvement will go deeper than she could ever have imagined.
