Well of the Winds

About the book

As the Second World War draws to a close, a man is fatally stabbed on the shores of Kinloch, near the imposing warships in the harbor. Years later, the postman on Gairsay, a small island off the Kintyre coast, finds that the Bremner family has vanished from their farm. Despite a pot simmering on the stove and food laid out on the table, there is no trace of the Bremners.

When DCI Daley acquires a journal penned by his wartime predecessor, Inspector William Urquhart, from Kinloch, he uncovers numerous secrets of the Isle of Gairsay. With assistance from his unwavering deputy, DS Brian Scott, and new superintendent, Chief Superintendent Carrie Symington, Daley must unravel a wartime murder in order to expose the shocking events of both the past and present.
