Scottish crime fiction author Andrew Raymond is stepping away from the mean streets of Glasgow. But is life any quieter on the island of South Uist in the Outer Hebrides. We’ll find out when the first in his new series featuring Detective Constable Mairead Maclean arrives on 4 June 2026.

This is a book we’re excited about for a number of reasons, but particularly because we’re drawn to atmospheric settings. So, we asked Andrew to join us on our YouTube channel, Video Evidence, to read a passage from the book. This is the first time he’s read publicly from the book – so, a Crime Fiction Lover exclusive. Love it!

Have a watch with our video below and let us know what you think…
