Book Jacket. As BOB SKINNER takes an evening stroll with a gorgeous filmstar on his arm, surely the worst of his worries is that back at Headquarters,an ambitious new colleague is scheming to enlarge his territory at Skinner's expense. But when a frightening shotgun attack sends Skinner and his old flame Louise Bankier diving for cover, seems danger has zeroed in on him once again. Returning to her native Scotland to shoot her latest film, Louise Bankier is one of Scotland's most popular exports - except with the stalker, who seems determined to scare her witless - maybe worse. For Skinner, tracking down her tormentor isn't just business now. It's very personal indeed. Meanwhile, the case of a pensioner found dead in his bath turns out to be anything but an open and shut case - especially when one of Skinner's closest staff is accused of murdering him. And a gang of thieves specialising in stealing items of a rather slippery nature are driving more, than one police force to distraction. On several fronts, Skinner is about to find out that nothing is quite what it seems...
