Gothic, horror suspense set on a “God-Forgotten” island off SCOTLAND
The Bookseller
THE SETTING
When the body of a bookseller is discovered, collapsed in a pool of blood in his Bristolian bookshop, it is immediately clear that he has been murdered. What is unclear is how someone could have met such a violent end in this quiet, peaceful place.
THE CONFLICT
DS Cross is adept at dismissing red-herrings but a worrying development in his personal life has left him hopelessly distracted, leaving his usual means of deciphering evidence challenged.
THE MURDER PLOT
