Aberdeen is panicking. It's been eighteen years since Grampian Police caught the Flesher the notorious serial killer who butchered people all over the UK and seven years since he was released from Peterhead prison, his conviction overturned on appeal. But when a container, full of joints of human meat turns up at Aberdeen Harbour it kicks off the largest man hunt in Aberdeen's history. Ken Wiseman is on the run and looking for revenge.
As senior police officers descend on the Granite City from up and down the county, Detective Sergeant Logan McRae is lumbered with the unenviable task of babysitting Chief Constable Mark Faulds from Birmingham one of the original investigation team and trying to keep DI Insch from throwing his career away in his obsessive quest to see Wiseman behind bars before he kills again.
When members of the team that put Wiseman away in 1990 start going missing, Logan knows that things aren't as straightforward as everyone thinks. More and more human meat is turning up in the food chain. Twenty years of secrets and lies are being dragged into the light. And the only thing that's certain is Aberdeen will never be the same again.

Stuart MacBride is a Scottish writer, most famous for his crime thrillers set in the "Granite City" of Aberdeen. Stuart was born in Dumbarton, Scotland and raised in Aberdeen. He studied architecture at Heriot Watt University in Edinburgh. His careers include scrubbing toilets offshore, graphic design, web design and IT/computer programming. MacBride claims his origins in writing lie in science fiction, however maintains that his upcoming book, Halfhead, is not science fiction. In his words, "crime fiction set in Victorian times is historic crime fiction, crime fiction set in the 21st Century is crime fiction, however set it 60 years in the future and it's bloody sci-fi!"
MacBride's publishing deal was secured with the writing of Halfhead, however the publishers were more interested in Cold Granite, concerning DS Logan MacRae. He was signed on a three-book Logan deal, which was further extended to six books. In 2009 he signed another deal, allowing him to write two more Logan books, and two standalone novels, the first of which is due after the sixth installment of the Logan MacRae series.
He now lives in north-east Scotland with his wife, Fiona and their cat Grendel. He is reputed to be a passionate potato grower.
