If it weren't for John McLeish & Francesca Wilson, on a hiking holiday in the Highlands, veteran mountain climber Alan Fraswer might never have survived the 300-ft fall from the rock the locals called "The Wall.: As it was, Fraser escaped with no more than a bad fright & some nasty bruises. In three weeks he was fit enough to work at Vernon Engineering's big construction site in London, as foreman to a crew that included his best mountain-climbing partner-and rival-and a pair of hulking Irish brothers. But when one of the four fell from an 80-ft scaffolding tower onto a pile of steel pipes, there was nothng Detective Chief Inspector McLeish or anyone else could do to save him...What McLeish could do was smell murder--and with help from the well-connected Francesca & her irrepressible family, he would sort through a tangle of greed, scandal & unrequited love that reached from Scotland to London to the treacherous peaks of the Himalayas.
