ABOUT THE BOOK

​In a reimagined contemporary Edinburgh, in which a tectonic fault has opened up to produce a new volcano in the Firth of Forth, and where tremors are an everyday occurrence, volcanologist Surtsey makes a shocking discovery.

On a clandestine trip to The Inch - the new volcanic island - to meet Tom, her lover and her boss, she finds his lifeless body. Surtsey's life quickly spirals into a nightmare when someone makes contact - someone who claims to know what she's done...


MY REVIEW

FAULT LINES by Doug Johnstone is a tense and atmospheric read that pulls you into the drama and will hold your attention to the very end,

When Surtsey discovers her married lover's body on The Inch, she panics and flees the scene, leaving him to nature. What happened to Tom? Did he fall or was he murdered? Should she go back or just wait for him to be reported missing? As all of these thoughts are running through her mind, she receives a text message claiming that they know what she has done and this is just the beginning ... 
​
With her mum slowly dying in a residential home and all of Surtsey's relationships strained as she tries to uncover the truth will Surtsey discover what really happened before it is too late?

Gripping, haunting, and surprising throughout, FAULT LINES by Doug Johnstone is more than a just a good novel - it is a story that plays like a movie in your mind and you can really imagine yourself as a part of the whole thing. A compelling story that will blow your socks off!
