Denise Mina Book Launch Blood, Salt, Water, 1 August, Waterstones Sauchiehall St

    
1 PM Saturday 1st August, 2015 Book Signing

Come and meet best selling crime author Denise Mina as she signs copies of her amazing new novel.

Unflinching, taut and masterfully plotted, Blood, Salt, Water is the brilliant fifth novel in the Alex Morrow series from two-time Theakston’s Old Peculier Crime Novel of the Year Award–winning author Denise Mina

DI Alex Morrow and her team have been shadowing a woman suspected of being involved in a large drug-smuggling and money-laundering operation. Roxanna Fuentecilla recently moved from London to Glasgow under suspicious circumstances, and Morrow’s bosses want all the glory when she’s finally arrested. But then Roxanna disappears. She’s left her partner and her two children, and something about the situation, and the children’s evasive attitude, leads Morrow to question what’s really going on.

In the nearby picturesque town of Helensburgh, Iain Fraser is struggling to live with his overwhelming guilt. Under orders from the infamous Mark Barratt, he’s just killed a woman, and now he’s left with blood on his hands. Meanwhile, Miss Grierson, a former scout leader who left the sleepy seaside town decades ago, has returned. Allegedly she’s back to sort out her recently deceased mother’s estate, but Iain suspects she has an ulterior motive.

1 August, Waterstones, 153-157 Sauchiehall Street,  Glasgow G2 3EW
