‘Past meets present in Well of the Winds. Two investigations involving thoughtful intuitive coppers are presented in parallel as the tale unfolds across the decades . . . Fictional Kinloch creates a different atmosphere to conventional “tartan noir” thrillers. This is a crime setting far from smoky pubs and the bookies’ shops of the average city. Little fishing boats are more important in this tale than black marias’ * The Times * ‘'I found raised eyebrows, wry smiles, and chuckles followed Meyrick’s trademark humour which attaches itself brilliantly to Scott . . . if you’ve not yet met Daley and Scott, do sink into the pages and introduce yourself' * LoveReading * ‘Meyrick’s portrayal of island – and rural Scottish – life is well drawn and will prove attractive to those keen to see their own home environment, albeit a fictional version, brought to life on the page’ * The Scotsman * ‘Daley’s tenacious nose for a story uncovers a tale of world-historical significance' * Oban Times * ‘The whole work is fast moving and suspenseful… a very good read’ * Journal of the Law Society of Scotland * ‘Haunting, memorable and truly thought provoking, this is one of my favourite books in the series so far’ * JenMed's Book Reviews * ‘There's a stunning twist towards the end and suddenly all was made clear’ * The Bookbag *
