About this ebook
A PATRICK SMYTHE SCOTTISH MYSTERY THRILLER
A naked body found on a lonely island. A band of sailors lifting graves in the dead of night. Can Paddy discover the secret that led a sheltered young man to a most gruesome death?
In his second full novel, former one-armed policeman Patrick Smythe takes to the Isle of Mull at the request of a distraught mother, looking for the truth of why her only son was found dead on the small island of Gometra. Along with his new feisty assistant, Susan Calderwood, Paddy uncovers the true story of a brutal death and incurs the wrath of local smugglers, sailors and a well-known photographer. But when things turn nasty, can Paddy plot a way out and see that justice is done?
“The Graves at Calgary Bay” continues the tale of the Ulster sleuth as his work takes him to the Isle of Mull, and the lonely island of Gometra. If you love underdogs and smart, dogged hounds of the truth, then you will love the adventures of Paddy and his red-haired teenage understudy.
Those who mess with the dead bring a reckoning onto themselves!

GR Jordan is a self-published author who finally decided at forty that in order to have an enjoyable lifestyle, his creative beast within would have to be unleashed. His books mirror that conflict in life where acts of decency contend with self-promotion, goodness stares in horror at evil and kindness blind-sides us when we are at our worst. Corrupting our world with his parade of wondrous and horrific characters, he highlights everyday tensions with fresh eyes whilst taking his methodical, intelligent mainstays on a roller-coaster ride of dilemmas, all the while suffering the banter of their provocative sidekicks.A graduate of Loughborough University where he masqueraded as a chemical engineer but ultimately played American football, GR Jordan worked at changing the shape of cereal flakes and pulled a pallet truck for a living. Watching vegetables freeze at -40C was another career highlight and he was also one of the Scottish Highlands blind air traffic controllers. Having flirted with most places in the UK, he is now based in the Isle of Lewis in Scotland where his free time is spent between raising a young family with his wife, writing, figuring out how to work a loom and caring for a small flock of chickens. Luckily his writing is influenced by his varied work and life experience as the chickens have not been the poetical inspiration he had hoped for!
