Maddy Harvey was a bit of an ugly duckling as a teenager, what with her N.H.S. specs, unfortunate hair and wonky teeth. Thankfully she`s blossomed since then. But when she meets Kerr McKinnon one starry summer`s night and discovers, days later, who he actually is... well, that`s when the problems really start. Because everyone in Ashcombe knows what happened eleven years ago, and as far as her mother`s concerned, Marcella would rather tear that family to pieces with her bare hands than see Maddy associate with a McKinnon.

When the privileged daughter of a merchant banker disappears, a search through her e-mails uncovers her secret life-and a bizarre correspondence with an on-line game player who delights in macabre puzzles. The first game was for the girl. The next one is for Inspector John Rebus, a man haunted by the impenetrable riddles of his own troubled past. But the lead is soon complicated by an unexpected twist. A hand-carved wooden doll in an eight-inch coffin is found on the grounds of the victim`s home-a clue that links her vanishing to the deaths of four other women, and to a centuries-old offense that still scars the grisly history of Edinburgh. From the shadowy world of an Internet stalker to the quicksand of lies in the missing girl`s...
