Join us in the shop as we celebrate the launch of a new gritty Scottish crime series by Liz Mistry, and she introduces us to The Blood Promise.

Her latest work, The Blood Promise is an explosion of grit and suspense, with dashes of humour throughout, but also juggles much bigger themes, from mental health, racism and misogyny in the police force. Book 1 in the series, follows detectives Jazzy Solanki and Annie McQueen as they are called to a murder investigation, but the case becomes personal when the killer is linked to Jazzy’s stalker. The new duo must solve the case, before Jazzy becomes the next victim. Jazzy’s Scottish/Indian upbringing in contrast to Annie McQueen’s 50 something, die hard, traditional Scot make for a unique duo. Their contrasting cultural life experiences come head to head as they work together to tackle the crimes of the Lothian underworld.

Join us in the shop to raise a glass, as we celebrate the release of a new compulsive thriller by Caroline Bond, writing as Rachel North, ‘Happily Never After.’

I wouldn’t miss this wedding for the world. It will be my last chance to put a stop to it… A small group of family and friends head to a beautiful, secluded location in the mountains of Mallorca for the wedding of Alex and Maddie.

The Finca Incantata is a magical place-a castle with a cobbled courtyard, a deep, cold, fresh-water pool and a high tower that looks out over the surrounding wilderness. The guests arrive bringing with them their pretty dresses, their smart suits and their private thoughts about the upcoming marriage. Among them is one guest who is determined to ensure the wedding does not take place…

Who is the malicious presence? Why do they hate so fiercely and so specifically? And just how far will they go to prevent Alex and Maddie tying the knot?
