The sixth book in the critically acclaimed DI Marjory Fleming series.
‘A welcome return for Templeton’s tough but tender DI, Marjory ‘Big Marge’ Fleming… The vivid characterisation, excellent description and a horribly looming sense of inevitability make Cradle to Grave a riveting read.’ Laura Wilson, Guardian
‘Templeton can always be relied on to provide a well-written, cleverly-plotted, old-fashioned whodunit.’ The Times

Is she an innocent victim of public anger? Or a calculating murderer on the run?

Reviews
'A Christie-style closed-circle detective novel.'
'Loved it'
An unalloyed pleasure - an intelligent, character-driven crime novel.
'Skilfully plotted and well-paced . . . This book is a delight, from its leisurely start to the moving and unexpected finish.'
'Interesting, atmospheric and - I predict - televisual'
[Aline Templeton] has demonstrated that, just when we thought Scotland was saturated with detectives, a strong woman can elbow her way in and find a unique niche.
'It is always a pleasure to read Aline Templeton, but THE DARKNESS AND THE DEEP must surely be her best book to date. Aline's characters are so beautifully drawn . . .'
A compelling read.
