In 2006, the Scottish
Government commissioned a sculpture and artist's book to mark the
contribution of Scottish women to improving women's lives and
advancing democracy. The
sculpture entitled 'Travelling
the Distance' was
completed and installed in the Scottish Parliament, and since then
the artist, Shauna McMullan, has been working on a book
about the making of the
sculpture and recording the involvement of the
women contributors.
Lin Anderson is one of the women whose writing is featured in the
sculpture, and attended the book launch on 13th November. |

Lin Anderson at the Inverness Book Festival
Venue: The Royal Highland Hotel |
CSI fans will be in
their element at this event. Lin’s creation, forensic scientist Rhona MacLeod, is rapidly rising up the ranks of crime fiction and
is one of Ian Rankin’s personal favourites.
In the latest
case,
Dark Flight, a six year-old boy has vanished, his mother and
grandmother horrifically murdered. At the scene, MacLeod finds a
talisman made from the bones of a child…
Greenock-born Anderson's work is sharper than a pathologist's
scalpel.
Chariman: John Feetenby, Waterstone's, Inverness
