Synopsis

The question has to be asked: was Alexander really a villain? It is worthy of note that Alexander Findlay, one of the few Scottish pipers to survive the horrors of the Great War, returned from the battlefields as an injured hero. After that ordeal, shouldn't life have become kinder to him? Admittedly, straying from the straight and narrow was wrong, but his untimely death shortly afterwards in the centre of Glasgow seems so unfair: and his legacy? He may have been a hero, but his ill-gotten gains became a shameful family secret. Are the Findlays up for a challenge 'from the grave'? Will there really be a worthwhile prize? The story involving six generations of the Findlay family gradually unfolds when Tom visits the loft "looking for the 'jeely pan'..."

À propos de l'auteur

Mac Black enjoys writing quirky fiction. Back to writing for adults, following his stand alone book, Scuffo, Mac has now released Lofty Issues - a family mystery and an old trauma about a post First World War mystery that takes six generations to solve.Mac's first Young Adult hero, Derek, was never alone when it came to looking for misfortune - there were always others in the stories to help him find it! Following the successful publication of his five-volume Derek series and enjoying Sweaty's exploits as a young man, Mac turned back thirty years to the eighties and started a series for younger readers, exploring Sweaty's childhood. Next Mac turned to a new hero - Maximillian the Mouse - quirky, smart and hand drawn by the author.
