Critic reviews

"This series is a must-read for anyone who loves the sea, or islands, or joyous, intricate story-telling." (Ann Cleeves)

Love this series!

All the books in this series are amazing. The plots are beautifully constructed and the characters are strong and believable

Better and better!

Immersive Shetland experience with enough sailing detail to make you taste the salt and feel the wind. The narrator was wonderful as always. The mystery was contemporary and made even more interesting in the Shetland context.

wonderful

Love listening to all thimgs having to do with boats along with murder mysteries. Fantastic!

I love this series! But…

I’ve been a big fan of these books. I loved the sailing details and the geography. I also loved that the female protagonist carved the career she wanted out of a male- dominated profession. However, the heavy- handed feminist and male- hating in this book seriously put me off. Frankly, after the first incident, I fast forwarded through the rest. Men= bad, women= strong victims? Enough. I will consider buying the next but if it is more of the same I’m returning it.
