Animosity. Distrust. And murder. You’re going to love it (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Lauren Lowes didn’t anticipate waking up to a sight like this when she excitedly signed her first book deal. Vaguely remembering hearing screams, she recovers consciousness on a yacht moored off the Amalfi coast to find four women lying dead on the deck, with herself as the obvious suspect and Italian police about to board the vessel. A lot has happened since her publisher greenlit the 24-year-old internet influencer’s book proposal. Lauren’s idea was to explore the generation gap and expand on

By 2016, it looks to outsiders like a grey, brutalist cautionary tale, a town “of rusted Lager Lovelies” that looks “as if it had tried to wriggle out from under its own design”. What its critics are missing, muses Frazer Gullen, is the community spirit that has been forged in Calderknowes over decades, an accretion of
Aberdeenshire true-crime podcaster faces an adversary he can't defeat (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Unsolved, Unburied, Unsound, Unknown – and now Unseen. Debuting in 2023, Heather Critchlow’s series of thrillers about true-crime podcaster Cal Lovett, based in her old stomping ground of Aberdeenshire, has been an invaluable addition to the crime fiction shelves, their plots underscored by an extended exploration of trauma, loss and obsession.
