Four Centuries of Murder

About Four Centuries of Murder

Hyde is the latest thriller from prize-winning author Craig Russell. When murders in Victorian Edinburgh echo the ancient Celtic threefold death ritual, Captain Edward Hyde hunts for those responsible. In the process he becomes entangled in a web of Celticist occultism and dark scheming by powerful figures. The answers are there to be found, not just in the real world but in the sinister symbolism of Edward Hyde's otherworld. A dark tale. One that inspires Hyde's friend... Robert Louis Stevenson.

Edge of the Grave is the first novel from Robbie Morrison. one of the most respected writers in the UK comics industry. Glasgow, 1932. When the son-in-law of one of the city’s wealthiest shipbuilders is found floating in the River Clyde with his throat cut, it falls to Inspector Jimmy Dreghorn to lead the murder case – despite sharing a troubled history with the victim’s widow, Isla Lockhart.

The House of Lamentations is the nailbiting final historical thriller in SG MacLean’s award-winning Seeker series. Summer, 1658, and the Republic may finally be safe: the combined Stuart and Spanish forces have been heavily defeated by the English and French armies on the coast of Flanders, and the King's cause appears finished.

*This performance is live/pre-recorded and will be available to watch for three weeks after the broadcast date to accommodate different time zones.

This performance is included in the Aye Write 2021 festival pass, so you will not need to purchase this event if you have already purchased a pass.
