THE BOOK NOOK  - 'Journey to The High Island' with Lin Anderson 

24th August 7:00pm
Stewarton Area Centre, Avenue St, Stewarton  G77 6EY


Lin Anderson makes a welcome return to talk about her latest novel ‘The High Island’  which introduces the new Orcadia Mysteries series. This gripping Tartan-Noir offshoot of Lin Anderson’s acclaimed Rhona MacLeod series features the popular character of DI Erling Flett and is set in the Island of Hoy in the Orkneys.

On the rugged Isle of Hoy, a wealthy couple’s dream of building a stunning eco-home becomes a waking nightmare when the peat yields a grisly secret: the remains of a young mother and her baby.
For DI Erling Flett, the discovery is a personal haunting. He spent years running from Orkney, only to be pulled back to the islands he once fled. As he fights to identify the nameless dead, the community pushes back – and his own troubled history begins to surface.
At the heart of the mystery lies a lethal family feud over blood-soaked soil. Can Flett finally face the ghosts of his past? Or will the island claim its next victim before the truth is told?
