‘I love stories. My life has been book-ended and bookmarked by hearing them, reading them and telling them. In my mind’s eye, I can see where each of these stories unfolds . . .’

In My Scotland, Sunday Times bestselling author Val McDermid takes readers to the landscapes she has known all her life, and the places where her stories and characters reside. Accompanied by over 100 stunning photographs, this remarkable book uncovers Val’s own Scotland in all its glory – from the iconic Isle of Skye to the majestic streets of Edinburgh; from the undiscovered hideaways of the Highlands to the wild and untamed Jura.

Featuring excerpts from Val McDermid’s bestselling novels and charting Karen Pirie’s Fife to Lindsay Gordon’s Glasgow, MY SCOTLAND is an unforgettable and uniquely personal journey.
