It's the last week of October (and it's almost Hallowe'en), which means it's also the last week of The Unrecovered being Waterstones Scottish Book of the Month! Probably worth another boost then, and available here:

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

Weβre delighted that Richard Strachanβs The Unrecovered has been chosen as Waterstones Scottish Book of the Month!
Unsettling and evocative, deeply atmospheric and brilliantly engaging, The Unrecovered is an unforgettable historical debut inspired by a real life legend.
