Travel Guide

Travel BookTrail style to St Andrews

The famous golf course comes into its own in this novel as it’s where a fun run is taking place (well nearby on the beach) . There’s a fun atmosphere until a baby goes missing. Even worse, the baby has a medical condition which means that it needs to be found asap.

The city of St Andrews is well evoked in this novel with the police moving around the city and into the surrounding area. The city is also a good backdrop to the action and proves to be a unique setting for a crime to take place – a fun run sounds nice doesn’t it?

With larger Scottish cities often getting the attention in crime novels St Andrews is a nice change.
