Summary

Milltown is a small community just outside Glasgow where everything in 1914 is local: the pub, the preacher, the policeman, the teacher; the gossip, the poacher, the pariah, the bleacher. Quiet, that is, unless you consider three inconvenient distractions - a Rumour, a Psychopath and a First World War.

Milltown by Jimmy Higgins

Milltown is a small community just outside Glasgow where everything in 1914 is local: the pub, the preacher, the policeman, the teacher; the gossip, the poacher, the pariah, the bleacher. Quiet, that is, unless you consider three inconvenient distractions - a Rumour, a Psychopath and a First World War.
Hailing from Neilston in East Renfrewshire, Scotland, Jimmy Higgins spent four years studying English at Queen's University, Belfast in the Seventies at the height of the Troubles, before going into teaching. After 30 years talking about books, Jimmy is now turning his hand to writing them - when not playing jazz piano, enjoying the folk scene or pretending to understand the relationship between Gaelic spelling and Gaelic pronunciation!
