The Red Road
By Denise MinaPublisher Description
Alex Morrow faces her toughest opponents yet in this brilliant thriller about criminals, consequences, and convictions.
Police detective Alex Morrow has met plenty of unsavory characters in her line of work, but arms dealer Michael Brown ranks among the most brutal and damaged of the criminals she's known. Morrow is serving as a witness in Brown's trial, where the case hinges on his fingerprints found on the guns he sells.
When the investigation leads to a privileged Scottish lawyer who's expecting to be assassinated after a money laundering scheme goes bad, and a woman who's spying on the people who put her in jail, Morrow has her hands full. And that's before she even gets to her family issues.
The Red Road is a thrilling new novel from a masterful writer, proving once again that "If you don't love Denise Mina, you don't love crime fiction." (Val McDermid)

“The Alex Morrow series latest offering is an interesting tale of good people who go very bad. The Red Road takes readers on a journey to the past and present and through events that shaped the characters into who they are.
While difficult to relate well to the main character, Alex Morrow, she was a very good catalyst to spend time with other more interesting albeit sad anti-hero characters.
Overall, a compelling crime procedural that will keep readers thinking long after the last page is turned.
Summary:
Police Detective Alex Morrow is testifying in a case against a, particularly brutal arms dealer. His fingerprints are the key that could prove him guilty or innocent. When his fingerprints show up in incredible circumstances, the stakes are high.
Morrow’s investigation leads her to a rich Scottish lawyer hiding from would-be assassins, money laundering schemes, and mistaken identity.”
