In Focus
Dollar is the most easterly of a line of four settlements strung along the foot of the southern
edge of the Ochil Hills. Dollar's early story is closely linked to that of
Castle Campbell, which lies above the
town at the head of Dollar Glen, protected by the deep ravines of the Burn of Care on one side and the Burn of Sorrow on the other. Originally known as

A fast-paced thriller set mainly in central Scotland and the far north-west. Callum Anderson is in Scotland to scatter
his father’s ashes when he’s asked by a cousin to look for her missing sister, Alexandra. With his life in London in tatters
and suspended from duty by the Metropolitan Police, why not? It soon becomes clear that Alex is on the run from someone who sees
Callum as a means of finding her and adding to a trail of bodies across two countries. Can Callum find Alex before his
own hunter finds him?
