A MISPLACED BODY - introduces the first meeting of McNab and the ghost of Dr. Joseph Bell.
THE LONE PIPER - an army officer, is found dead at the base of the walls of Edinburgh Castle. Suicide or murder?
THE DRAGON'S TOOTH - a night-watchman at the National Museum of Scotland finds a body riddled with the tooth marks of an ancient dinosaur. How?
THE SELKIE OF CALARŅIN - a young fisherman has been found in his bed dead of a heart attack. Bell finds that the young fisherman had really died of drowning. But how?
THE BLUE CLAIDH - Detective Sergeant Olivia Kerr has gone missing and Bell enlists the aid of another Spirit to find her.
THE DOMINIE'S DOWNFALL - at the Saint Triduana's School for Young Ladies an unpopular teacher has fallen down a stairway and broken her neck. An accident or murder?
THE WHITE LADY of INVERCOILTIE - in this new story, McNab investigates the drowning of an unpopular researcher found in Lock Ness. Was he dragged into the lock by "Nessie", the Lock Ness Monster? The ghost helps the young detective and investigates the innocence of the White Lady, a fellow Spirit who haunts the nearby castle.

About the AuthorDr Peter Scott was born and raised in Sydney, Australia and has written over thirty books, mainly non-fiction including works on Earth Science, the environment, survival and teaching. In the last few years, he has turned to fiction and has written in a variety of genres, mainly historical adventure, science fiction and crime. Graduating from Sydney Teachers' College he later completed part-time university studies gaining a Bachelor of Science, Masters Degrees in Science, then Educational Administration and finally a Doctorate in Education. Apart teaching he has also been a University lecturer, an Australian Army Reserve Officer (Infantry) and Naval Cadet Officer/Instructor who was trained at sea in 'Tall Ships'. Having travelled extensively to all seven continents, he has always followed his own interests and so his novels often reflect his personal experiences. Scotland, and Edinburgh in particular, has always been one of his favourite places and he has returned there several times. He now lives in Brisbane, Australia with his wife and extended family.
