A police procedural set in North-Eastern Scotland.
Sergeant Logan McRae and his team have to deal with a great variety of crimes, major and minor, and also have to deal with overlapping investigations by other branches of the police. As the title implies, this book deals mainly with missing and dead persons.
One man is arrested for torturing another, and the children of the torture victim are missing. In another case, the body of a young girl is found, and she appears to have been murdered, but no child of that description has been reported missing. An investigation into the theft of ATMs leads to a drug-dealing suspect, and investigations are sometimes hampered by jurisdictional disputes between different police teams, so the Sergeant McRae finds that he sometimes commended and reprimanded for the same incident.
There are some unexpected plot twists which lead to Sergeant McRae and those he loves …
