Do you love Scottish crime novels? Have a taste for tartan noir? Then join crime author Lynne McEwan as she talks and answers your questions about her bestselling series featuring part-time lifeboat volunteer, and full-time detective DI Shona Oliver, from researching locations to creating compelling characters – and all things crime writing. 

 The Gathering Storm, published in February, is the fourth in the series set in Scotland’s beautiful, but deadly Solway Firth. DI Shona Oliver’s past and present collide when James McGowan, her ex-classmate, now a famous actor, is making a Robert Burns biopic locally. It’s Shona’s job to keep him safe while filming on an isolated island in the Solway Firth. But when a dead man wearing James’s coat is found on the beach in suspicious circumstances, it seems someone wants him out of the picture. Can Shona keep her head above the waves, and protect those around her?
