'I love this series. Dandy is a brilliant creation' Reader review ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Beware the ferrywoman of Cramond Island.
1936, Cramond: On the Firth of Forth lies a small island, home to Vesper Kemp, the ferrywoman. After a series of bizarre outbursts, most believe she has simply gone mad. Society woman - and sometimes detective - Dandy Gilver - wants to know her story.
But the island doesn't reveal its secrets lightly.
When the body of a young man washes ashore, Vesper immediately claims responsibility. Dandy is not so certain and sets about the unusual task of proving that someone isn't a murderer. But there is something strange about this small community. Something that Vesper might not even realise she knows . . .
A brilliantly thrilling and witty cosy historical mystery set in rural Scotland in the 1930s. Perfect for fans of Sherlock Holmes, Agatha Christie and Richard Osman.

Recenzii
A perfect literary treat for a rainy Sunday afternoon.
With sharp wit and an Agatha Christie-style ability to create a lively cast of characters, this is an intriguing historical mystery.
A great pinch of humour and a sprinkling of absurdity, McPherson beautifully evokes the feelings and images of post-war Edinburgh.
