Killing Cousins (An Inspector Faro Mystery No.4)

Victorian D I Faro's visit to a remote Orkney island erupts in horrors. Two bodies, the village simpleton possibly murdered and the week-old corpse of the laird's wife removed from her coffin are laid out side-by-side on the ancient Odin stone of sacrifice. A bizarre Romeo and Juliet? Who could have played this monstrous trick - and why? For this is just the threshold of terrors to come and danger for Faro and his family.
