After studying politics, Denzil Meyrick worked as a police officer, distillery manager, freelance journalist, and company director. He is originally from Campbeltown in Argyll, but now lives with his wife Fiona on Loch Lomondside.
‘Past meets present in Well of the Winds. Two investigations
involving thoughtful intuitive coppers are presented in parallel as
the tale unfolds across the decades . . . Fictional Kinloch creates
a different atmosphere to conventional “tartan noir” thrillers.
This is a crime setting far from smoky pubs and the bookies’ shops
of the average city. Little fishing boats are more important in
this tale than black marias’
*The Times*
‘'I found raised eyebrows, wry smiles, and chuckles followed
Meyrick’s trademark humour which attaches itself brilliantly to
Scott . . . if you’ve not yet met Daley and Scott, do sink into the
pages and introduce yourself'
*LoveReading*
‘Meyrick’s portrayal of island – and rural Scottish – life is well
drawn and will prove attractive to those keen to see their own home
environment, albeit a fictional version, brought to life on the
page’
*The Scotsman*
‘Daley’s tenacious nose for a story uncovers a tale of
world-historical significance'
*Oban Times*
‘The whole work is fast moving and suspenseful… a very good
read’
*Journal of the Law Society of Scotland*
‘Haunting, memorable and truly thought provoking, this is one of my
favourite books in the series so far’
*JenMed's Book Reviews*
‘There's a stunning twist towards the end and suddenly all was made
clear’
