Writing in the Sand by Angus Dunn

Writing in the Sand by Angus Dunn

At the farthest end of the Dark Isle lies the village of Cromness, where the normal round of domino matches, meetings of the Ladies' Guild and twice-daily netting of salmon continues as it always has done.

A cross between High Road and Dr Who, with a hefty dose of League of Gentlemen thrown in for surreal good measure - THE PRESS & JOURNAL

A bold, confident debut, packed to the gunnels with memorable characters and wry humour. - THE LIST

Monty Python meets James Bond... the book is a grand read. - NORTHWORDS NOW

Fantastic book! I kept thinking I knew where it was going, then it didn't go there. - DJ HOOKER BARBIE

Funny, imaginative, thrilling and charming, with a colourful cast of unforgettable characters and a page-turning plot that had me gripped to the very last page. - THE PRESS & JOURNAL

Pitching the mysterious smalltown worlds created by the likes of Daphne Du Maurier and David Lynch into the Highlands... a spooky debut story about shape-shifters and parallel universes. - THE LIST

Alternates from huge energetic sweeps of narrative to very fine and simple descriptions of the place he loves... Dunn gives full reign to the humour, in its own right. He has a close affinity with Monty Python. I often laughed out loud. - NORTHINGS
