A Fred Buchanan Mystery
A Fred Buchanan Mystery
Embedded Files
Fred Buchanan, mid-forties, ex-cop turned private eye, working the backstreets of Edinburgh where the rain never quite washes the city clean. He chain-smokes Camels, drinks Stolichnaya straight from the neck, and takes the cases nobody else will touch – missing persons, cheating spouses, and quiet favours for lawyers with hands dirtier than their ledgers.
He’s sharp, cynical, and tenacious as a terrier, with a memory like flypaper and an eye for what everyone else overlooks. Haunted by mistakes, driven by a crooked kind of justice, Fred keeps going when common sense says lie down.
His marriage is in ruins, his office on Lothian Road doubles as his flat, and the only thing between him and the gutter is his big sister, Margaret – receptionist, book-keeper, and nagging conscience rolled into one.
Fred Buchanan is a man who’s been through the fire.
The trouble is, he’s still standing in the smoke

Book Two in a Fred Buchanan Mystery
When a respected geologist is found dead on a mountainside near the remote Highland village of Strathdoran, private dectective Fred Buchanan isn’t interested. Missing person cases are bad business. But when the dead man’s past doesn’t add up – and the woman who asked for Fred’s help turns out to be someone else entirely – he finds himself pulled into a landscape thick with secrets.
At the heart of it all lies a decaying estate, a walled garden hiding more than roses, and a mining legacy that someone is willing to kill to keep buried. As Fred digs deeper, he uncovers a web of corruption, betrayal, and buried grief, where even the cleanest hands are dirty and truth comes with a body count.
