Here's location which sparked 100 responses when author quizzed locals
The strength of feeling readers had for Scan bookshop in Cumbernauld meant that a whopping 100 of them replied to a local Facebook group query from an author – who has put the premises in his latest novel!
He is Mike Kernan (64) who grew up in Cumbernauld.
And we can reveal that not only is he writing a sequel to last year’s hit ‘The Fenian’ but that it’s half finished.
