The Scottish Murder

Book 9 of the DCI Steve Burt series.

First Published 21 March 2025

Two killings 500 miles apart seem to be unconnected. A girl’s body discovered in a doorway in London cannot surely be connected to another body discovered in Dundee. When the Scottish body vanishes from the mortuary Police Scotland wash their hands of the investigation. As the murdered girl found in Scotland had recently travelled from London DCI Steve Burt is given both cases . During the investigation the team have to battle political greed, a ruthless killer and major corruption as they unearths a devious plan that would give the UK complete world domination and make a government minister very rich. However in order to protect his expected wealth the minister must eliminate anyone who gets in the way. Steve and his team have to deal with a succession of apparently unrelated murders before the two cases finally come together.

Reviews of The Scottish Murder

Mystery

I just read @johnreidauthor last book and I have to tell you that it’s my favorite! After this week I was in need of a ‘dose of a good book’! In this new mystery, DCI Steve Burt finds himself immersed in two deaths that, although they don’t seem to be connected, are more than we thought! We have murders, corruption and an attempt at world domination! This is the perfect book for mystery lovers and it will hold us from beginning to end! I highly advise you to read this book, you won’t regret it!
