It is not yet dawn on the damp rooftops of Glasgow when the police receive an anonymous call: they have violently murdered a young man on the fourteenth floor of a building under construction. The word 'GOODBYE' has been carved into his chest with a knife. This gruesome murder intimately hits a well-known and powerful mobster, Jake Scobie, and, above all, his wayward daughter, Elaine. Agent Harry McCoy, who has not yet returned to work after his therapy in his previous case, will have to take over the investigation. However, that will not be the only corpse from that cold month of February 1973 when snow mercilessly covers the streets of the city. Meanwhile, Harry's not-so-rookie colleague Wattie heroically tries to rise to the rank of sergeant. And other shadows emerge from the horizon, denser than the storms that hang over Glasgow: the most dangerous are those that will force our protagonist, McCoy, to return to his tormented adolescence, spent in orphanages and foster homes.
