A young man is found hanging by a rope in his Edinburgh home. A simple, sad suicide, yet Detective Inspector Tony McLean is puzzled by the curious suicide note. A second hanged man and another strange note hint at a sinister pattern. Investigating a brutal prostitution and human trafficking ring, McLean struggles to find time to link the two suicides. But the discovery of a third convinces him of malicious intent. Digging deeper, McLean finds answers much closer to home than he expects. Something terrifying stalks the city streets, and bringing it to justice may destroy all he holds dear.

Reviews for The Hangman's Song: Inspector McLean #3

The hallmarks of Val McDermid or Ian Rankin: it's dark, violent, noirish * The Herald * Crime fiction's next big thing * The Sunday Telegraph * Literary sensation...James' overnight success has drawn comparisons with the meteoric rise of EL James and her Fifty Shades of Grey series * Daily Mail * Fifty Shades of Hay * The Times * Oswald is among the leaders in the new batch of excellent Scottish crime writers * Daily Mail * The new Ian Rankin * Daily Record * Classy, occasionally brutal, and with the odd suggestion of the supernatural, this will doubtless be another deserved hit. Oswald's writing is in a class above most in this genre and McLean - his rich, idealistic and all-too-human detective - is the perfect counterpoint to Ian Rankin's cynical Inspector Rebus * Daily Express *
