Main character: Cammeron Brodie
Summary: A hill walker finds a body on a remote hill top, her estranged father goes to investigate and the post-mortem reveals foul play.
Detail: Set in Scotland in 2051, the author vividly describes a world changed by climate change as a back drop to a tense drama around a difficult father-daughter relationship. A gripping tale, in which the plot carefully unfolds.
The best bits: The world changed by rising sea levels puts a literary perspective on climate change.
The worst: Excessive use of bad language - I'm sure even in 2051 a doctor would not use foul language and blaspheme in front of a patient.
