Whisky From Small Glasses
A crime novel, set in a small Scottish rural town thinly disguised as Kinloch, ‘Whisky From Small Glasses,’ reveals the seething cauldron of sex, drugs, violence, corruption and murder that lies beneath the dour surface of Kinloch life. The book starts with one body found in the sea. Two more bodies are quickly added as it becomes clear a serial killer is at large. Further ramifications include police and harbour staff corruption and the involvement of a Latvian drugs smuggling ring.
