The Goldenacre (2022)
(Shona Sandison Investigation, book 1)
Philip Miller
"Art, music, politics, and murder, set against a backdrop of one of the most beautiful cities in the world - what's not to love? A complex and compelling plot, with intruiging characters that I very much hope we will meet again. Great read."

Bloody January (2017)
(Harry McCoy, book 1)
Alan Parks
"Set in 1970s Glasgow where violence is a language everyone speaks, Bloody January is a deliciously dark read. One to be read with the lights on and the doors locked, this book is a must-have for lovers of McIlvanney and all things noir."

Awards
McIlvanney Prize Best Novel nominee (2016) : A Fine House in Trinity
