Left a widower by murder, lawyer James Kirkpatrick leaves America to find his Scottish roots, and in Dumfriesshire he walks into the arms andcharms of DCI Persephone Rodriguez. Yet James' new home has ghosts of its past, too. After the Battle of the Atlantic, within sight of the Bloody Foreland, every surrenderedU-boat was sunk by naval gunnery. What could this have to do with the disappearance of a young nursing auxiliary, found dead the day before the last U-boat was used fortarget practice? Found not by the authorities nor byanyone else for the last seventy years... Photo: Firth of Solway, west of Balcary Bay.
