| book description |

Introducing Inspector Jimmy Perez. Raven Black is the first book in Ann Cleeves's bestselling Shetland series, adapted into a major BBC One drama starring Douglas Henshall. A remote community with a killer in their midst . . . On New Yearâ€™s Day, Shetland lies buried beneath a deep layer of snow. Trudging home, Fran Hunter's eye is drawn to a vivid splash of colour on the white ground, ravens circling above. It is the strangled body of her teenage neighbour. As Fran opens her mouth to scream, the ravens continue their deadly dance . . . The body is found close to the home of a lonely outcast and local suspicion falls firmly on him. But when Inspector Jimmy Perez insists on broadening the search for suspects, a veil of distrust and fear is thrown over the entire community. As the case develops, Perez finds himself peering deeper into the past of the Shetland Islands than anyone wants to go. The case files of Jimmy Perez continue in White Nights, the thrilling second Shetland novel. Praise for the gripping and atmospheric Shetland series: â€˜Cleevesâ€™ setting is beautifully evoked . . . this is as finely crafted and satisfying as a well-made piece of furniture â€“ just look at the workmanshipâ€™ â€“ The Times â€˜Like a smoky Shetland peat fire, this elegantly written, slow-burning intrigue shrouds you in mystery and crackles with inner heatâ€™ â€“ Peter James, author of the bestselling Roy Grace series â€˜A most satisfying mystery set in an isolated and intriguing location. Jimmy Perez is a fine creationâ€™ â€“ Peter Robinson, author of the DCI Banks series
