Water's Edge: A Highlands and Islands Detective Thriller by G Jordan

A body discovered by the rocks. A broken detective returns to a scene of past tragedy. Will the pain of the past prevent him from seeing the present?

Detective Inspector Macleod returns to his island home twenty years after the painful loss of his wife. With a disposition forged in strong religious conservatism, he must bond with his new partner, the free spirited and upcoming female star of the force, to seek the killer of a young woman and shine a light on the evil beneath the surface. To do so, he must once again stand in the place where he lost everything. Only at the water's edge, will everything be made new.

The rising tide brings all things to the surface.

GR Jordan is a self-published author who, at the age of forty, determined that in order to live a happy life, he needed to unleash his creative beast. His stories reflect the battle in life when integrity clashes with self-promotion, goodwill flinches at evil, and love catches us off guard when we're at our worst. He underlines everyday tensions with fresh views while taking his methodical, intelligent stalwarts on a roller-coaster journey of challenges, all the while suffering the banter of their provocative sidekicks, corrupting our world with his parade of wondrous and horrifying characters. Gary had worked at modifying the shape of cereal flakes and pushed a pallet truck for a career after graduating from Loughborough University, where he pretended to be a chemical engineer but ultimately played American football. Another highlight of his employment was watching vegetables freeze at -40°C, and he was also one of the Scottish Highlands' blind air traffic controllers.

He's progressed to answering the phone for folks in distress before dialing other numbers to help them. He has lived in most parts of the United Kingdom, but now resides on the Isle of Lewis in Scotland, where he divides his time between raising a young family with his wife, writing, learning to weave, and caring for a small flock of hens. Fortunately, his writing is affected by his diverse profession and life experiences, because the hens have not provided him with the poetical inspiration he had hoped for!
