Antonia Baillie is a true Romani gypsy - she has the gift of foresight and uses this to help people. When the ghosts of the past come calling, can she put her own fears aside and work with the police to help find out who is torturing and killing young men? Detective Sergeant Mark McKay has never had a need to solve a case using a psychic. He doesn't believe in it - pure and simple. But when Antonia tells him the name of a young man and gives him details specific to the case, he can't help but change his view. Especially when a body matching what she described is found in the vaults deep under the city. Mark and Antonia race against a spree of monstrous crimes, long-standing grudges and the perils of the darkness in the vaults beneath Edinburgh to try and find a sadistic killer before time runs out. Can they stop him before he strikes again? Will they discover who is responsible? And can they do it without becoming victims themselves?
