Welcome to Holm, a quiet parish on the Orkney Mainland, where the sea is never far away, the wind carries stories across the landscape – and appearances can be deceptive.
The Holm Mysteries of Orkney is a new atmospheric mystery series by Natalie Hertlein, set among the windswept shores, ancient landscapes and close-knit communities of Orkney. At its centre is Jamie MacLeod, who arrives in Holm ready to begin a new chapter of his life. Fresh from university, with his first job waiting for him in Kirkwall and a new home overlooking the sea, Jamie expects little more than a quiet beginning.
Beautiful, remote and steeped in history, Orkney provides the backdrop for a new series of mysteries where ordinary lives hide extraordinary secrets – and sometimes the person watching from across the road has secrets of his own.
