From acclaimed author and television dramatist Peter May
comes the first book in the Lewis Trilogy--a riveting
mystery series set on the Isle of Lewis in Scotland's
Outer
Hebrides, a formidable and forbidding world where
tradition
rules and people adhere to ancient ways of life.
When a grisly murder occurs on the Isle of Lewis that has
the hallmarks of a killing he's investigating on the
mainland, Edinburgh detective and native islander Fin
Macleod is dispatched to see if the two deaths are
connected. His return after nearly two decades not only
represents a police investigation, but a voyage into his
own
troubled past. As Fin reconnects with the places and
people
of his tortured childhood, he feels the island once again
asserting its grip on his psyche. And every step forward
in
solving the murder takes him closer to a dangerous
confrontation with the tragic events of the past that
shaped--and nearly destroyed--Fin's life.
The Blackhouse is a thriller of rare power and vision that
explores the darkest recesses of the soul.
