About the Book

St Andrew’s Day. A back shift from hell. A city about to erupt.
Warning – contains spoilers for DI Rob Marshall book 6...

After years working as detective, Sergeant Rakesh Siyal is back in uniform and facing the hard realities of Edinburgh’s streets. With a missing teenager sucking away manpower, his frontline team have to contend with a pub fight in danger of spiralling out of control and turning into something far more dangerous.

Juggling the chaos of the night, Rakesh is called to a domestic dispute that feels all wrong – and his instincts tell him there's more lurking beneath the surface.

As he hunts for a stray dog causing havoc with traffic, tensions soon rise and Rakesh must rely on more than his experience as a detective to navigate a city ready to erupt.

False Dawn follows on from events in His Path of Darkness, the sixth DI Rob Marshall novel.
