'A fascinating page-turner!' Bestselling author T. A. Williams ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Knapdale, Argyll. A place of beauty, tranquillity... and murder
When newly promoted DI Anna Vaughan is called to a case in remote Knapdale, on the Argyll coast, she welcomes the chance to escape her life in Glasgow - more specifically the mother-in-law from hell...
Ellen McIver, Baldrishaig's local busybody, has been found dead. Run over - repeatedly - by a tractor belonging to local farmer Glen Cameron. The most likely culprit is Old Wullie, Cameron's elderly father, who, despite his dementia, still likes to drive the tractor about the lanes. But once at the crime scene Anna can tell something sinister is afoot... this was no accident. Whoever drove that tractor did so with murder in mind.
With the help of local DC Jo McLean, Anna leads her first murder case as a DI. She soon finds that all is not as it should be in this corner of the Scottish Highlands. The locals have been living under a cloud of fear for months, and as Anna starts to uncover secrets buried for years, she is in a race against time to find a murderer hiding in plain sight.
Fans of Aline Templeton, Caro Ramsay and Marion Todd will not want to miss this brand new, gripping Scottish crime series.

'A fascinating page-turner featuring a well-drawn collection of characters set in a small Scottish community. The newly promoted inspector is sympathetic and smart, and the plot kept me fully engaged throughout. Highly recommended.' Bestselling author T. A. Williams
'Daniel Sellers writes with rare control and confidence - his prose is atmospheric, unsettling, and beautifully precise, turning The Knapdale Murders into a masterclass in tension, character, and slow-burn dread.' Bestselling author John Nicholl
'This is my kind of crime thriller! A love a puzzle to solve and this book provided that. A knotty mystery, with prickly suspects and a murder victim who nobody liked. Cleverly written, an absorbing read that I whizzed through in a couple of days. Ready for the next one!' Bestselling author Rona Halsall
'As atmospheric and brooding as the Scottish landscape. Sellers hits the ground running with his new series and I cannot wait for more.' Bestselling author Michael Wood
