A psychological crime thriller set in Scotland
Ian Skewis was born in Scotland in 1970.
He wrote articles for a local paper and had his first poems published at the age of 19. He trained at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland and became an actor, appearing on film and television, and providing his voice for radio. He performed in numerous stage plays that toured internationally, including Like Thunder, which received a Fringe First Award in 2001.
He is the author of several short stories, including ‘The Circular Memory’, ‘Leviathan’, ‘Borrowed Time’ (finalist in The Temporal Logbook international competition) and ‘Inkling’, which was published in an anthology, The Speculative Book, in 2016.
He lives and works in Glasgow.
A Murder of Crows is his debut novel.
"Ian Skewis deftly mixes gritty urban settings with sinister countryside in a multi-layered plot that keeps you guessing right up to the end. Strong characters and a finely crafted sense of unease lend this debut the star quality that will surely make it one of the standout thrillers of 2017" - Dr Brooke Magnanti
