If you have sharp eyes, you’ve no doubt noticed there is a new name on our site: Douglas Skelton, and it is my pleasure and honour to introduce Douglas to you all.
First, here’s a bit of bio information he’s supplied:
Douglas Skelton is the author of 12 true crime/Scottish criminal history books, including one which exposed a notorious miscarriage of justice in Scotland. Since 2013 when he turned to fiction, he has written ten crime novels set in Glasgow, the Scottish Highlands and New York.Open Wounds, the final part of his Davie McCall series, was nominated for the McIlvanney Award in 2016. The first Rebecca Connolly novel, Thunder Bay, was similarly long-listed in 2019 and is available in the USA from Arcade Crimewise. The Blood is Still will be published by them in January 2021.
Please look in the righthand column where partway down, you will find a link to Douglas’s website and Twitter feed.
Second, Douglas will be alternating on Mondays with Tom Kies. Look for his inaugural post this coming Monday.
Also, I heartily suggest that you dip your toe into his books. I’ve already ordered Thunder Bay, and I suspect I’ll be ordering the rest.
Again, welcome Douglas!
Have a great week, everyone. I’m sure we’re all looking forward to Monday.
Hooray for Scotland.
