Dawn with Daftie. This looks like frost. How I wish it was! Just mist lying across the fields before the rising sun burns it off. The heatwave continues 😢

Low lying mist in a bucolic scene at sunrise.

With one of the biggest sales jumps of the week, THE BLACK LOCH, has leapt up to Nº3 in the Sunday Times paperback bestsellers list, and Nº4 in the Total Consumer Market. A huge thank you to all my loyal readers!

My latest thriller, The Black Loch, publishes today in paperback - I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it. You can get a copy from your local bookshop or online: www.waterstones.com/book/the-bla...

When The Chessmen published in 2013, I was ready to leave Finn Macleod and the Isle of Lewis behind. But The Black Loch demanded to be written, and so The Lewis Trilogy became The Lewis Thrillers. The Black Lock, the 4th instalment in The Lewis Thrillers, will be published in paperback on July 17.

Dusk without Daftie. Saint Malo at the end of the day.

The sun dipping yellow in a golden sky of scattered cloud. Its reflection falls over the sea below a silhouette of the tiny island fort that guards the port of Saint Malo.

Dawn without Daftie. I‘m at Saint Malo this weekend for the international book festival, Etonnants Voyageurs, and sadly had to leave the wee man at home.

Early sun reflecting on the bay at Saint Malo.

The Gulf of Saint Tropez - a parking lot for boats of the rich and famous!

Horizon of the Bay of Saint Tropez littered with the silhouettes of giant yachts.

Today’s dawn with Daftie: 05.54.

Line of red light burgeoning along the horizon, light reflecting in the still of the bay, pink-tinged contrails crossing the blue sky above.

Another day, another dawn with Daftie.

Stormy dark cloud over the bay, with rays of dawn sunshine breaking through.

My dad (left) and his best friend, immediately pre war. Unbeknownst to either of them, each was later sent to serve in India, and in an extraordinary coincidence met by chance in a hotel restaurant in Bombay.

Dawn with Daftie. Hope on the horizon.

Dark cloud above, foreground rocks, sandwiching a strip of dawn light along the horizon.

Dawn with Daftie. Same time, same place as yesterday. The difference a day makes!

Sun sending rays through a broken clouded sky to reflect on the still waters of the bay.

Dawn with Daftie (rain on the horizon(.

Looking out across the still waters of a bay. Rocks in the foreground. Light along the horizon, but dark cloud above, and the smudge of rain falling between the two.

When my father began sinking into dementia, my mother disowned him and I placed him temporarily in a home until I could figure out what to do. These are his thoughts on the place. An English teacher and headmaster with a love of Shakespeare, he could now barely write.
