Šachové figurky – May Peter (2015)

A new beginning injects Fin Macleod with fresh optimism. He has settled back on the Isle of Lewis in the Hebrides, where he once lived as a child. As a former police detective, he is hired by a local landowner as the head of security. For a man with Fin's experience, this should be an easy task. While investigating illegal activities occurring on the estate, he encounters the elusive local poacher Piskoř Macaskill, with whom he once attended school. But when Fin catches Piskoř in the act of poaching, both men witness a bizarre natural phenomenon where a nearby lake spontaneously empties, revealing a small, muddy plane with a familiar inscription on the side. Both men know what they will find inside — the body of their friend, musician Roddy Mackenzie, whose plane disappeared over seventeen years ago. When Fin sees something other than shock on Piskoř's face at the sight of Roddy's remains, a chilling premonition grips him. Fin gradually uncovers Piskoř's secret, but he is far from prepared for the truth about the past that could also affect the future. Paperback edition.
