Award Winning Author Returns

At the 2024 AGM of the St Duthac Book and Arts Festival we were delighted to share the news that local Highland author Shona MacLean will be returning to the 2024 festival, which takes place from the 10th - 15th September 2024.




Shona will talk about her Jacobite thriller, The Bookseller of Inverness, which was a fascinating read and Waterstones’ Scottish Book of the Year 2023 and will also give a tempting insight into her forthcoming nineteenth century novel set in the Black Isle and which mentions Tain.


Born in Inverness, Shona grew up in the local area, attending Hilton of Cadboll Primary School and Dingwall Academy. She studied History at the University of Aberdeen, gaining a PhD in Seventeenth Century Scottish History. She is the author of both the Alexander Seaton and the Damian Seeker historical mystery series for which she has twice won the CWA Historical Dagger. Shona took part in the inaugural 2021 Festival, and we are delighted to welcome her back.
