Summoning the Dead (D.I Bob Valentine)

"Black has created a sympathetic and fascinating character in Valentine ... Strong characters and tight pacing elevate this police procedural." — Publishers Weekly“We have a dead child, and a crime scene that has been remarkably well kept for us.” A young child lies mummified in a barrel. His hands, cable-tied, appear to be locked in prayer. As forensic officers remove the boy they are in for an even bigger shock — he is not alone. With his near-fatal stabbing almost a memory, DI Bob Valentine is settling back into life on the force but he knows nothing will ever be the same. Haunted by unearthly visions that appear like waking dreams, he soon understands he is being inducted into one of Scotland’s darkest secrets.When the boy in the barrel is identified as a missing child from the 1980s, it re-opens a cold case previously thought unsolvable. When further remains are unearthed, the facts point to a pedophile ring and a political conspiracy leading all the way to the most hallowed corridors of power.
