Hi all,
I've just submitted another book in the Inspector George Gently case Files
series, "Gently In The Highlands", by Alan Hunter.
It's been read and spell-checked. Headers stripped, page numbers/chapter
titles present/protected, fonts adjusted. Lots of Scottish dialect for your
spell-checking pleasure. 174 pages.
Description:
Because of a man with a red beard, Inspector Gently's plans for a peaceful
holiday in the Scottish countryside have gang agley.
Gently first encounters Redbeard when driving on the highway leading north
from London; his Sceptre almost collides with Redbeard's Cortina. Then, on
his first evening in the Highlands, as he is strolling near the Bonnie
Strathtudlem, he again spots Redbeard, standing high on a crag above the
glen, peering at Gently through his binoculars.
Next morning, the body of one Donnie Dunglass is found, face down on the
heather on the braes above Strathtudlem, near where Gently had seen
Redbeard. The killer was good at his work. A nice clean job. Not much blood.
Just a single hole in the back where someone had stabbed him with a dirk-in
the best Highland tradition. Gently feels it his duty to inform the local
constabulary about the presence of Redbeard-and against his will he is
involved in a baffling game of hunt-the-killer.
Deborah
