Blair Charlston swapped the stock market for salvation - and now he's making a killing.
Once a controversial venture capitalist, Charlston reinvented himself as a business guru after surviving an attempt to take his own life when a deal went disastrously wrong. So when he decides to host a weekend retreat in Stirling for more than 300 people, Connor Fraser is drafted in to cover security for a man who is at once idolised as a saviour and hated as a ruthless asset stripper.

For Connor, it's an unwelcome assignment. He's never had much time for salvation by soundbite, and Charlston's notoriety is attracting the attention of reporter Donna Blake. But when an old colleague of Donna's is found brutally bludgeoned to death, and the start of Charleston's weekend of salvation becomes a literal trial by fire, Connor must race to unmask a killer whose savagery is only matched by their cunning.
