Entry Island | 
pickMy first Peter May, but it won‘t be my last! This was excellent and I highly recommend. Realized after I finished that it fits for #TBRtarot as well - based on true events (at least partly), as much of it is set during the Highland Clearances in the 19th century (a horrible part of history that I didn‘t know much about). Great murder mystery but so much more.
In the mood for this book tonight. My first by this author. Chasing away tonight‘s binge on cherry twizzlers & m&m‘s.
pickAnother terrific read from Peter May. His Lewis trilogy is on the horizon for me. Peter‘s books are intense in their sense of place, and often dark, but there‘s hope and love as well. A splendid standalone mystery set in the Magdalen islands of Canada and the Hebrides in Scotland. Definitely recommend if you enjoy literary mysteries.
Tagged one for sure, but there are many more. I want to know your thoughts 👇🏾
pickI really enjoyed my first Peter May! An intriguing murder mystery, but the historical fiction part about Scotland and Scottish ancestry was the cherry on top! I immediately liked the protagonist and I am sad to say this is a stand-alone. The setting is magnificent, and I thoroughly recommend this book! I learned a lot, and the small Canadian islands are somehow so exotic to me. 4,5 stars.
Some of my favourite mystery books.

Gone with the maple leaf of Canada and my favourite Peter May standalone. Not read this book, what are you waiting for! Read it now! Love the link to the Scottish Highland clearances, the story of the early settlement of Canada and a current murder mystery thrown in too!

One of my favourite books that takes in one of Canada‘s islands as well as the mainland. A great mystery that also gives you a feeling for Canada in it‘s early years. Totally recommended!

Entry Island by Peter May is one of my favourite books #SetOnAnIsland (although some of it also takes place on the Canadian mainland), I would also have to mention Peter May‘s brilliant Lewis Island Trilogy. All of these are cracking reads ❤️ #MarchInBooks #SetOnIsland
pickMycket bra! Blandning av en mordutredning på Entry Island o Kanada och en släkthistoria med sin början i Skottland. Jag kämpade i början, för blandningen av verkligheten och drömmar gav ett smak av övernaturliga, som jag inte brukar gilla i böcker. Men den blir riktigt fängslande ju ner man närmar sig logiska förklaringar. En väldigt positiv överraskning då jag väntade mig en klassisk deckare.
Alltså, vem bryr sig om vilka gator kriminalpolisen Sime Mackenzie körde igenom. Visst, spännande kanske för Montrealbo, men varför belasta övriga världen med denna information?
"Kriminalkomesarie Olsson körde längst E20 från Göteborg mot Stockholm. När hon mötes av Allums magnifika siluett, svängde hon till Landvettervägen. Det tog inte ens fyra minuter att komma till den tredje rondellen och svänga mot idylliska Furulund."
