Somerled, Lord of the Isles: The Warrior Who Redefined Western Scotland

Redman, Alastair: - Alastair Redman is a writer, historian, and local councillor from the Isle of Islay in Scotland's Inner Hebrides. Passionate about natural justice and community representation, Alastair has spent much of his career giving a voice to rural communities and highlighting issues that affect ordinary people across the UK.

Before becoming an author, Alastair worked as a sub-postmaster for over twelve years, managing the Post Office in Portnahaven on Islay. His branch was directly affected by the Horizon scandal, providing him with unique, firsthand insight into one of the most significant miscarriages of justice in modern British history.

Alongside his political and community work, Alastair is deeply interested in Scottish history and culture, especially the stories of the Western Isles and their people. His writing combines personal experience with extensive research to produce works that are both accessible and thought-provoking.

Horizon's Shadow: The True Story of the British Post Office Scandal is his latest book, offering an unflinching examination of the human and institutional failings at the heart of the Horizon IT disaster.
