A brutal slaying is the first move in a ritualistic killer's twisted game. Paths of the Dead is the ninth novel in Lin Anderson's Glasgow-set forensic crime series featuring Rhona MacLeod.

'One of the most satisfying characters in modern crime fiction' - Daliy Mail

When Amy MacKenzie agrees to attend a meeting at a local spiritualist church, the last person she expects to hear calling to her from beyond the grave is her son. The son whom she'd only spoken to an hour before.

Then the body of a young man is found inside a Neolithic stone circle high above the city of Glasgow - and forensic scientist Rhona MacLeod is soon on the case. The hands have been severed and there is a stone in the victim's mouth with the number five scratched on it. DI Michael McNab is certain it's a gangland murder, but Rhona isn't convinced.

When a second body is found in similar circumstances, a pattern begins to emerge - that of a killer intent on enacting a gruesome Druidic game. One that everyone will be forced to play...
