RAMELTON has been chosen by a top Irish crime writer Paul Charles as the setting for his latest thriller.
He chose the vill age because he thinks it's the ideal place for a fictional murder.
His latest detective yarn, A Dust of Death, revolves around a gruesome murder which takes place in Ramelton, and his new detective hero, Garda Inspector Starrett, who arrives in Donegal to investigate.
Limavady-born Charles has already published eight successful novels and holidays in Donegal regularly with his wife.
"We spend a lot of time in Donegal on holiday from home in Whitechapel and we like to call in to Ramelton for coffee. It's the perfect place for a fictional murder."
