Small planet tidally locked to a red dwarf which is orbiting a main sequence star

I'm working on creating a planet that is tidally locked to a red dwarf, which is in turn orbiting a main sequence star which is much further away. My idea is that the tidally locked side of the planet is far too hot to support life, but given that the planet is small and has a thick atmosphere, so strong winds constantly circulate between the "always bright" side and the colder day/night side. My question is: what would the temperatures and wind patterns actually look like? What would be the optimal/strategic place for a civilization to inhabit on this planet, and what would some rough distances be to ensure that the orbit of the planet around the red dwarf was stable against the perturbations from the main sequence star? Is a small planet with a significant atmosphere this close to a red dwarf even possible?
