But when the matriarch of the notorious Shepherd family goes missing, DCI Andy Gilchrist and his associate, DS Jessie Janes, are called upon to find her - if they can. Their investigation uncovers a historical trail of missing persons, leading them to an illegal body disposal service. As Gilchrist's investigation deepens, he uncovers a murderous plot to destroy the status quo of the criminal underworld and change the balance of power in Scotland and beyond. But the up-and-coming criminal hierarchy will not give up easily, and they set in motion murderous acts of retribution, one of which is to eliminate Gilchrist and Janes. Can Gilchrist and Janes survive long enough, or will they end up like all the others - just two more illegally-disposed of bodies in the river?

From Mark: In March 2024 I decided to take time out from my less than hectic broadcasting job to live in Rome for a few months. I'm not a natural traveller really, but there are two places where I've felt immediately at home - almost as if I've lived there before in a previous life. I felt totally attuned to Rajasthan which is odd as it is notably dissimilar to the North West of England.So it was that Bella, Arlo and I set off on a road trip in our VW Beetle to take us there via Reims, Strasbourg, Lucerne, Bellagio on Lake Como and Bologna. What follows is in no sense a guide book but rather a record of our Roman ramblings, in both senses of the word, as seen through the eyes of Arlo. He can't speak of course. He's a dog. But I'm pretty confident that this was what was going on inside his head.

'In the morning I drink / coffee until I can see / a way to love life / again. It's okay, there's / no difference between flying and thinking / you're flying until / you land. Somehow / I own like six nail clippers / and I honestly can't / remember ever buying / even one.' Instantly quotable and unique, PAPER CROWN combines the play and humour of Heather's earliest work with the emotional and autobiographical turn of THE CRYING BOOK. In poems such as 'Suggested Donation,' 'Mistake,' and 'Perfect Song,' as well as previously unpublished work, Christle explores familial relationships, the nature of memory, and the outer edges of imagination. Poems from PAPER CROWN have appeared in The Best American Poetry, Granta, The Nation, The New Yorker, and The White Review. With tenderness and verve, honesty and curiosity, PAPER CROWN continues Christle's lifelong pursuit of understanding the ways that we can move words, and how words in turn can move us.

What results is irreducibly human. In the Rhododendrons is vital consolation. It's a triumph, an instant classic. Christle has become one of our art's most urgent living practitioners' Kaveh Akbar
