Lin will talk about how the Dr Rhona MacLeod series of novels began with Driftnet and the latest in the series, no 18, Whispers of the Dead, where two parallel stories collide amidst the filming of an American blockbuster in the Merchant City in Glasgow. She'll explain where her ideas originate and the importance of character, especially in a long-running series.

Lin Anderson is best known as the creator of the forensic scientist Rhona MacLeod series of crime thriller novels, and for her part in founding the annual ‘Bloody Scotland’ crime writing festival, dedicated to promoting Scotland’s other great national export.  in's Rhona MacLeod novels Paths of the Dead and Follow The Dead were shortlisted in 2015 and 2017 for Scottish Crime Book of the Year, Torch was a Kindle Scottish Crime No.1 bestseller,  and Driftnet and stand-alone thriller The Party House were both Scottish No.1 bestsellers.

Lin is a former Chair of The Society of Authors in Scotland, regularly chairs events at literary and science festivals and conferences, and gives talks on ‘Forensic Fact Meets Forensic Fiction’, entertaining audiences with amazing true-crime anecdotes, and giving unique insights into her world of story-telling.

This event is part of Book Week Scotland and our own fantastic Autumn Authors series, which runs from September to November.
