Join Jardine's charity tour

AUTHOR Quintin Jardine's famous Edinburgh detective, Bob Skinner, is set to come alive from the pages of crime novels and on to the streets of the Capital, to help raise money for charity.

A new walking tour will revisit the crime locations and incidents investigated by the fictional Edinburgh detective during a two-hour journey. The entry fee is 10 and money raised will be donated to veterans' charity Poppyscotland.

The tour, on Friday, 23 April, begins at the Roxburghe Hotel and ends at the Writers Museum.
