The year is 1835, and two strangers on the murky banks of the Union Canal make boatmaster James Ross a proposition. They will give him a pound in return for an alibi. Should anyone ask, they have been aboard his vessel all night. Ross glimpses their mud-spattered shoes. What have they been doing?A century later, Dalmuir couple Edith and Charles Hunter set off on a wintry evening walk along the Forth and Clyde. Minutes later cries of distress are heard from the banks, but the Hunters have gone. A police search soon becomes a sensational murder case.Scotland’s major canals, from the Highlands to the Lowlands, all feature in the annals of crime. In this fascinating new history T.A. Stewart reveals how assailants and thieves, and even kidnappers and terrorists, have been drawn to the waterways to practise their black arts.
