Thank you @johnsutherland.bsky.social for sending me a copy of The Castle. Given how much I enjoyed Blue and Crossing the Line and how gripping and unputdownable I found The Siege, I can’t wait to get stuck in. Feels appropriate to read with a wee dram of Ballindalloch single malt… 🥃🏰

That’s incredibly kind of you Sam - thank you so much for reading!
Happy reading!
That’s incredibly kind of you Tony - thank you!
Just finished The Castle by @johnsutherland.bsky.social.
What a cracking read - and set in my neck of the woods!
Have tried Tomintoul whisky, must try Ballindalloch now.
(Interesting to compare police negotiating with what I remember from HMPS. Lots of similarities, but a few key differences.)
