Skylight Books – Hotlist Fall 2012
The cobbled lanes of St. Andrews, Scotland, have become the hunting ground of the most vicious serial killer
Britain has ever known. Striking only during thunderstorms, choosing only victims who abuse women, the
Stabber has Detective Inspector Andy Gilchrist and his team baffled until victim number six turns up. A surprise
witness gives Gilchrist and his partner, the embittered Detective Sergeant Sa Preston, their first solid lead to the
Stabber's identity. However, the media uproar offers Gilchrist's boss his golden opportunity to suspend Gilchrist
and bring in the Scottish Crime Squad. With reckless resolve, Gilchrist takes on the case alone, risking it all in a
heart-stopping race to catch the Stabber, knowing that any mistake could be his last.

THE HEART BROKE IN
MEEK, JAMES
A scientist obsessed with evolution but unable to have children, a malaria researcher trying to choose between
freedom and love, and a washed-up TV svengali whose life goes through a riveting exploration of what
conscience means in the 21st century, and how we attempt to make our lives count for something. It is a glorious
drama, as well as an old-fashioned tale of modern times. When Bec Shepherd rejects marriage to a powerful
newspaper editor in favour of starting a family with fellow scientist Alex, her sense of right and wrong is put to the
test. Bec's brother Ritchie has built a hugely successful career in entertainment, but allegations about his private
life are threatening to destroy his marriage, his career and his mind. Does Bec and Alex's relationship stand a
chance? Will Ritchie's indiscretions catch up with him?
