Peter May

The Road of Coffins is a suspenseful thriller set in the Hebrides of Scotland. The novel follows three parallel stories that intertwine towards a shocking denouement. With a tense plot and unexpected twists, the novel keeps the reader in suspense until th

On a deserted beach on the Isle of Harris in the Hebrides, a man has been washed up on the sea, barely alive and on the verge of hypothermia. He doesn't know who he is or how he got there. The only clue to his identity is a map marked with a road known as the Coffin Road. He doesn't know where it will take him, but filled with terror and uncertainty, he knows he must follow it.

Detective George Gunn sails the stormy waters of the Atlantic to a lonely cliff 30 km west of the Hebrides in Scotland. With a bad premonition, he comes ashore where three lighthouse keepers disappeared more than a hundred years ago. It's a mystery that has never been solved, but now another has emerged. On the same cliff, a man has been found beaten to death, and Detective Gunn must discover who did it and why.

A teenage girl lies in bed in her room in Edinburgh, desperate that she still doesn't know the truth about the death of her father, a renowned scientist. Two years after finding his suicide note, Karen Fleming still can't accept that her father would willingly abandon her in such a way. The more she discovers about the nature of his research, the more she suspects that other people are behind his disappearance.

Coffin Road follows three perilous journeys toward a shocking truth—and the realization that ignorance is fatal to the individual, and to all of humanity.
