Synopsis

In a bird sanctuary off the coast of Argyll, a local bird watcher is found murdered. In this wonderful haven, now tainted by the killing, Detectives Thane and Moss encounter two kinds of danger. One human -- in the form of their quarry -- grows increasingly desperate. The other natural, a line of deadly half-tide rocks known as The Fangs.
