Ann Cleeves is back with the sixth book in her Shetland
series featuring Inspector Jimmy Perez, whom readers will
remember from Raven Black, White Nights, Red Bones, Blue
Lightning, and Dead Water.
A group of old university friends leave the bright lights of
London and travel to Shetland to celebrate the marriage of
one of their friends. But, one of them, Eleanor,
disappears—apparently into thin air. It's mid-summer, a time
of light nights and unexpected mists. And then Eleanor's
body is discovered lying in a small loch close to the cliff
edge.
Detectives Jimmy Perez and Willow Reeves are dispatched to
investigate. Before she went missing, Eleanor claimed to
have seen the ghost of a local child who drowned in the
1920s. Her interest in the ghost had seemed
unhealthy—obsessive, even—to her friends: an indication of a
troubled mind. But Jimmy and Willow are convinced that there
is more to Eleanor's death than they first thought.
Is there a secret that lies behind the myth? One so shocking
that someone would kill—many years later—to protect?
Ann Cleeves' striking new novel is a quintessential whodunit
with surprises at every turn.
