    In The Case of the Case of Kilcladdich, golden-age gadabout Anty Boisjoly travels to the timeless source waters of Glen Glennegie to help decide the fate of his family’s favourite ferment, but an impossible locked room murder is only one of a multitude of mysteries that try Anty’s wits and witticisms to their northern limit. 
    Time trickles down on the traditional tipple as Anty unravels family feuds, ruptured romance, shepherdless sheep, and a series of suspiciously surfacing secrets to sort out who killed whom and how and why and who might be next to die. 
    Tim Bruce returns as ever-optimistic Anty, his heirloom valet Vickers, and two entire Scottish villages, sheep included, and manages to keep everyone distinct and distilled and delightful, even after the whisky kicks in during a golf match which is hilarious on paper but which Tim raises to a pro tour de force. 
    The Case of the Case of Kilcladdich is another stand-alone, locked room puzzler for those who like a little kidding in their killing and mirth in their mystery, and wouldn’t object one bit to a conspiracy between Agatha Christie and PG Wodehouse.

    A historically-grounded thriller about the dangerous cost of justice, the weight of an oath, and the thin line between sanctuary and prison.  
    In the shadow of King David's rising throne, as fractured tribes struggle toward nationhood, a new institution takes form: the city of refuge – part sanctuary, part courthouse, part cage.  
    Two men. Two murders. One impossible alliance. Bound by separate tragedies and driven by overlapping vengeance, they forge a wary partnership built on lies neither can afford to expose.  
    Around them moves a cast caught in their own desperate gambles: a wounded Philistine warrior clinging to vanished glory, a pregnant bride enduring silent brutality, and a priest's daughter digging toward freedom. Each navigates a rapidly changing society, ancient in its patriarchy yet ruthlessly pragmatic in its survival.  
    From blood-soaked shepherd hills to Jerusalem's rising walls to Shechem's protected quarter, The Blood of Birds pulls back the gate on what these sacred cities truly were – their markets and night watches, their whispered bargains and iron-bound oaths, their collision of divine law and human desperation.
