Secular Games
Secular Games is Alex Wylie's debut collection. Formally exploratory and inventive, its poems range across subjects and settings: ninth-century Japan, Renaissance Italy, the surface of Venus, focusing afresh our own historical moment. Written over eleven years, this book is a poetic testament of our era in exacting, sensuous, restless language.

Eskdale Shoot
Vigilante action is generally deplored, a symptom of the breakdown of law and order, or perhaps - equally serious - a loss of confidence in the integrity of the police. Is it ever justified? The decisive need for the police to retain the community's confidence may be the lesson from Eskdale. Eskdale Shoot is the gripping tale of Peter Thorburn, the newly appointed manager of a forestry firm in the Scottish Borders, who is plunged suddenly into a mire of murder, tampered evidence and bullying interrogation. he wants to live a quiet life and marry, but someone is determined to frame him for a murder. Who? And why? The tale reaches its violent climax in Eskdale. As Peter's belief in the integrity of the police is progressively destroyed, he is forced to resolve the extreme crisis solely with the help of close friends, the only people he believes he can trust, and some Gurkha soldiers from his brother-in-law's regiment.
