miles away: memories can kill

MILES AWAY - a gripping psychological thriller set in 1970s Scotland

Flint risks losing Isla - unless

- he exposes awful secrets lurking in the darkness of his mind

Could he really be a killer?

Gordon Flint thinks he has cured his fear of heights when he learns to self-hypnotise. With his phobias behind him, his relationship with Isla can flourish.

But is the treatment worse than the disease?

He can live with nightmares that reveal disturbing family secrets, but the risks of exploring his subconscious are brought chillingly home to him by the shocking death of a friend.

By now, though, Flint can’t function without hypnosis. He has to continue.

Dreams go on, exhuming buried memories of grisly murders - crimes that remain unsolved and apparently unconnected. The killer has to be someone Flint knows - perhaps even himself. Desperate, he confides in Isla. The pair team up with young PC Craig Masson and psychologist Dr Sutton to identify the serial killer that only they know is operating.

Set in 1970s Scotland, Miles Away is a complex, twisty thriller that asks questions:

• What might the unconscious be hiding from us?
• Can something you know kill you? - or even make you kill?

Miles Away was chosen to feature at the Bloody Scotland International Crime Writers Festival alongside recent works by writers including Jeffrey Archer and Abir Mukherjee.
