Out in the Cold

Written by Stuart Johnstone

Narrated by David Monteath

After an incident makes remaining in Glasgow impossible, Police Sergeant Don Colyear is sent to work in a remote Highlands town. His new Inspector wants him gone and the locals wonder why he’s even there. Still, Don makes a go of things, striking up a good working relationship with rookie officer Rowan Forbes. As Don starts to investigate petty crimes, it soon becomes clear that there is something off about the town. A string of teenage disappearances has not been given due attention. Then there’s the gruesome murder of the groundsman of the local sporting estate. Could the incidents be linked? As Don delves further into the town’s secrets, it’s not long until his own life is at risk.
