WELCOME TO ARACHNID PRESS

Arachnid Press Ltd is an independent Scottish publisher set up in late 2020. Our
aim is to develop a full range of publishing services.

We are not currently open to submissions, but will announce here when that
changes. At present we are focusing on a small number of projects beyond our
latest publication, 'The Stockholm Run' by Ken Lussey. These include our work
with an external author on the production of a cookbook with a fascinating
twist. Watch this space...


OUR STORY

Which came first, the chicken or the egg? You'd expect a book to come about
because of a publisher. In our case, a publisher came about because of a book.

Arachnid Press grew out of the remarkable success of Carolyn Henry's superb
compilation of 'Kirkliston COVID-19 Isolation Portraits'.

The story of the book is told in our page about it, together with that of the
exhibition it spawned at St John's Hospital in Livingston. Suffice it to say
that Carolyn's production of her book brought about the realisation that her
skills, combined with those of Maureen Lussey, owner of the highly successful
website Undiscovered Scotland, and those of author Ken Lussey, gave us
everything we needed to begin to establish Arachnid Press Ltd as an independent
Scottish publisher.

NEWS: THE STOCKHOLM RUN

We published 'The Stockholm Run' by Ken Lussey on 26 May 2022. This fast-paced
thriller is set largely in Edinburgh and Stockholm during World War Two.

It’s March 1943. The death of an intruder reveals a hidden military bunker at
Dundas Castle near Edinburgh, a living relic of an anti-invasion scheme from
earlier in the war. Bob Sutherland and the Military Intelligence 11 team follow
a trail that leads to a much larger secret, buried beneath Edinburgh Castle.

As the mystery in Edinburgh unravels, Bob Sutherland and Monique Dubois are sent
to Stockholm, a city supposedly at peace in a world at war. There they are to
take delivery of a message of critical national importance.

Or is it all a carefully crafted trap? Both encounter ghosts from the past in
Sweden. Can their relationship survive what they uncover? Will they live long
enough for that to matter?

BLOODY ORKNEY

We published 'Bloody Orkney' by Ken Lussey on 29 June 2021. This is a fast-paced
thriller set in Scotland, mainly in Orkney, during World War Two.

It’s November 1942. Bob Sutherland, Monique Dubois and the Military Intelligence
11 team fly in to review security in Orkney, home to one of the most important
and most heavily defended naval anchorages in the world.

But an unidentified body has been found. It becomes clear that powerful men have
things they’d rather keep hidden and MI11’s arrival threatens the status quo.
Then Bob stumbles over a ghost from his past and things get far too personal.

He and Monique are called away to resolve a crisis at a secret experimental base
at Gruinard Bay in Wester Ross. When they return to Orkney, they find that the
rules have been rewritten and they are in very real danger.
