About this ebook
When Doug meets his old school-day flame Lyn, however, he feels his past may offer the salvation of a future. But, Lyn's son has been accused of murder and she begs Doug to find the truth.
Soon Doug is tangled in a complicated web of corrupt politicians, frightened journalists and a police force in cahoots with criminals. Only Burns' philosophical musings offer Doug some shelter as he wanders the streets of Auld Ayr battling The Storm Without.

Reviews for The Storm Without
4 ratings1 review
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Douglas Michie returns to Ayr after being kicked out of the RUC and soon finds himself helping an old girlfriend whose son has been accused of murder uncover the truth. Easy to read and authentic sounding Ayr locations which help overcome the implausible plot at times (eg why didn't the murdered girl's parents know what she was doing?) and first person voice.
