SUMMARY:Scottish Bound Book Club – The Bookseller of Inverness
DESCRIPTION:Join NHSCOT for our next Scottish Bound Book Club gathering on Thursday, October 16th at 6pm, where we will be discussing “The Bookseller of Inverness” by S.G. MacLean.\nAbout this book:\nA GRIPPING HISTORICAL THRILLER SET IN INVERNESS IN THE WAKE OF THE 1746 BATTLE OF CULLODEN.\nAfter Culloden, Iain MacGillivray was left for dead on Drummossie Moor. Wounded, his face brutally slashed, he survived only by pretending to be dead as the Redcoats patrolled the corpses of his Jacobite comrades.\nSix years later, with the clan chiefs routed and the Highlands subsumed into the British state, Iain lives a quiet life, working as a bookseller in Inverness. One day, after helping several of his regular customers, he notices a stranger lurking in the upper gallery of his shop, poring over his collection. But the man refuses to say what he’s searching for and only leaves when Iain closes for the night.\nThe next morning Iain opens up shop and finds the stranger dead, his throat cut, and the murder weapon laid out in front of him – a sword with a white cockade on its hilt, the emblem of the Jacobites. With no sign of the killer, Iain wonders whether the stranger discovered what he was looking for – and whether he paid for it with his life. He soon finds himself embroiled in a web of deceit and a series of old scores to be settled in the ashes of war.\nWe look forward to seeing you on October 16 at 6pm on Zoom!\nTo register and receive the Zoom link, please email Andrew MacLeay.
