EDINBURGH MURDER MYSTERIES
Traude Ailinger

Seven witty, twist-filled mysteries set in Scotland’s capital — where every cobbled street hides a secret, and every crime has a human cost.
Grumpy, bird-watching DI Russell McCord has seen plenty in his years with Police Scotland. Sharp-eyed journalist Amy Thornton has a talent for finding trouble.
Together they make an unlikely team — part detective duo, part sparring partners — solving crimes that cut through the city’s high society and its hidden underbelly.
From a near-fatal hit-and-run that was no accident, to a deadly shooting-party, a murder on the train into Waverley Station, and a fall from Salisbury Crags, McCord and Amy chase killers across Edinburgh’s closes, galleries and Georgian crescents.
And in Parting Words, a young woman’s dying words lead to questions no one wants answered — forcing McCord and Amy to face their most personal case yet.

Book 1: NEAR MISS
Book 2: HIGH HAND
