Happy launch day! So glad to be part of this anthology, with a story about a true crime podcaster taking on more than she'd bargained for when visiting the site of a grisly murder (with some appropriately bloody Scottish folklore influence) 🩸🏴🎤

Gaudete lets the other world into the earthly realm by means of a changeling replacing an Anglican clergyman. But is the other world another plane just beyond our own, or something which lives inside us?

I'm not known for historical fiction but a while back I wrote a story set in Glasgow in 1960, a time when there were a number of infamous murder sprees. It's a story about the human cost of working on those criminal cases involving absolutely inexplicable inhumanity.
