In Focus
Regular travellers along the A1 through
East Lothian will have seen signs pointing to the
National Museum of Flight at East Fortune.
This is a slight detour well worth taking for anyone with an interest in aviation who is looking

Featured Book
A Tangled Web by Ken Lussey (15 November 2023).
A fast-paced thriller set in northern Scotland. Callum Anderson returns to Sutherland to help local GP Jenny Mackay investigate the death
of her husband. The authorities say it was suicide but she’s convinced he was murdered. It soon becomes clear that Iain Mackay lied to
everyone who thought he loved them: especially his wife and his daughters. But that becomes the least of their problems when they come up
against people who have already killed and would have no qualms about killing again.
