Visiting a bookshop and then calling in to see Jimmy Perez.

This kept me entertained during several early morning wakeups—hello 3am, I see you…again…and again (fortunately not back to back to back). The case of a missing girl presumed dead resurfaces when another one is found murdered—fantastic setting and likable characters make up for the occasionally clunky writing. The first in a series, I liked this one enough I‘ll probably continue with the series in the future.
Trust jet lag to give you a little extra reading time while on vacation…tagged book is keeping me company after a fun day of touring Norway. It‘s our first time here and the scenery is something else!
Helena and Daniel Fleming's 10 yo autistic son Christopher finds their neighbour's nanny hanging in the barn and it obviously wasn't suicide.
Lots of ongoing story lines wrapped up in this, the last in the series, some of them in a perfunctory way in the last few pages. I will miss Jimmy, Willow, and Sandy but I appreciate the author's point that she couldn't have kept going for much longer without Shetland having a ridiculously high murder rate.
The body of a woman is found in the aftermath of a landslide but nobody seems to know who she is.
I know the possible romance between Jimmy and Willow is the main event but having read so many of these books together the character I want to see more of is Sandy Wilson. Leaving that aside I found the solution to the murder mystery unsatisfying.
An English TV producer in Unst to celebrate a friend's marriage and scout out the possibilities of making a documentary about a local ghost is found dead in marshy ground the morning after a party. Willow Reeves and Jimmy Perez investigate.
Jimmy seems to be back on form but is Willow getting smitten?
A Shetland journalist who has been working in London returns to the islands only to turn up dead in the Fiscal's yoal. Jimmy Perez, still traumatised by the events of the last book, reluctantly helps with the investigation.
An absorbing read that left me disorientated whenever I had to resurface to deal with real life.
