About this listen

Introducing sixteenth-century Scottish lawyer and amateur sleuth Hew Cullan.

1579, St Andrews. A thirteen-year-old boy meets his death on the streets of the university city of St Andrews, and suspicion falls upon one of the regents at the university, Nicholas Colp. Hew Cullan, a young lawyer recently returned home from Paris, uncovers a complex tale of passion and duplicity, of sexual desire in conflict with the repressive atmosphere of the Protestant Kirk and the austerity of the academic cloister.

For a nation of comedy experts, Scotland does produce some bloody dour novelists! I swear a book about cute bunnies in the heather would end in a bunny massacre with the survivors chastened but cowed by the Covenanters! Anyway, I loved this with its downtrodden women, self-important Kirk fathers and ever so sceptical lead characters. Can’t wait for more.

Lighten up Scotland!
