Buried secrets. Mystic symbols. Revolutionary action. Edinburgh is uneasy in the aftermath of the independence referendum. Relations between Holyrood and Westminster are poor, and a humiliating football result won't help. Hamish 'Hard' Knox, investigative journalist, craves adventure, so when his friends are kidnapped, he is worried, but also excited. Has the extremist Clann na Saorsa taken them to discover the treasure of the Knights Templar, or because of Knox's murky past? As chaos mounts, politicians and police fear conspiracies everywhere. Knox will have to use all of his eccentric imagination to save the day. Dark, absurd satire in the tradition of Colin Bateman and Christopher Brookmyre.
