But when they reach the idyllic Scottish village of Dirleton, residents confirm a woman was seen at the crime scene - an ancient stone called the louping stane, still spattered with the victim''s blood. And the longer the detectives spend in the village the more they question Daisy''s involvement. They''re not getting the answers they need, but are they asking the right questions? . . .
