About the Author
    Stuart MacBride has scrubbed toilets offshore, project managed multimillion-pound IT projects, run his own graphic design company, dressed up as a woman for money, and asked people, “Do you want fries with that?” For a bit of a change he now writes grisly crime novels set in Aberdeen.
    Since his first novel Cold Granite was published in 2005, Stuart has won the 2006 Barry Award for Best First Novel; the 2007 CWA Dagger in the Library and ITV3’s Crime Thriller Award for Breakthrough Author for 2008. He has been nominated for a second Barry; an ITWA best first novel award, and shortlisted three times for the Theakston’s Old Peculier Crime Novel of the Year. His latest novel, Shatter the Bones , was a number one Sunday Times bestseller.
