Calling out all our True Crime fans! 🕵️‍♂️

We have an exciting new book launch, organised by our new friends at Ringwood Publishing, for you to attend at on Tuesday 20th September, 7pm. Free event - just come on in! 😉

'This meticulous reconstruction of one of Scotland's most famous and salacious crimes deserves to take a major place amongst Scotland's most important true crime books.' - Tom Wood

One murder. Three versions of the story. A gunshot ends the life of Maxwell Robert Garvie on a May night in 1968. Three people are accused of the crime: his wife, his wife's lover, and a young man (whom Max had never met).
But the story is not about Max. It is about his wife Sheila. She is branded by the media as a scandalous femme fatale, a murderous mastermind, a Lady Macbeth...

The author, Allan Nicol was a Procurator Fiscal Depute for 12 years. He qualified as an Advocate in 1993 and then defended clients charged with more serious offences until 2011.

Save the date!! It's going to be a fantastic evening talking about this Sheila Garvie trial that obsessed the nation in 1968.
.. And if we haven't convinced you enough yet, there will also be teas, coffees & cake! ☕🥧🍰

You can get your copy of the book signed by A.M. Nicol on the night 📖

But the story is not about Max. It is about his wife Sheila. She is branded by the media as a scandalous femme fatale, a murderous mastermind. A Lady Macbeth.

This exciting new book launch, organised by our new friends at Ringwood Publishing ( ) will take place at Books & Beans on Tuesday 20th September, 7pm. Free event - just make sure to put it in your diary now, so you don't miss it!! 📖

We are currently working on Series 2 which will be released in October. In this series we look at 3 sets of crimes - Robert Black’s horrific murders, Sheila Gravie, who Allan wrote his latest book about and Willie MacRae - the “suicide” who was found meters away from the weapon used to shoot him in the head.
