Summary
Shetland Detective Jimmy Perez knows it will be a difficult homecoming when he returns to Fair Isle. It’s a community where strangers, while welcomed, are still viewed with a degree of mistrust. With the autumn storms raging, the island feels cut off from the rest of the world. Tempers among the trapped islanders become frayed. Enough to drive someone to murder?
When a body is discovered, the islanders react with fear. With no support from the mainland, Jimmy has to investigate the old-fashioned way. And with no way off the island until the storms abate, he knows he has to work quickly. There’s a killer on the island waiting for the opportunity to strike again....

Fantastic Narration
I've enjoyed all the Ann Cleves books I've read and this was made even better by being narrated in the proper accent. The story is a good twist on the country house mystery, but also very moving in parts.

Another wonderful wise story
There is something so humane and wise about Anne Sleeve’s books which puts them a cut above other thrillers. A very satisfying story with wonderful narration by Kenny Blyth.

Back on form!
This story was back to form. intriguing, evocative and not too obvious. And the increasingly annoying, angel-like Fran is gone. Now Jimmy can be proper grumpy and solemn. I'm going straight to the next one.

Don't read the other reviews!
One of them seriously gives away a major plot point. It you love the Shetland series, you'll live this. If you don't, buy something you do like.

Great story with twist and turns
Kept you guessing all the way through. Follows the personal lives of the main characters and can't wait for the next book.

Not really a fan of bird watching
So no idea what all the fuss was about over spotting birds, but that didn’t matter. This book is just a joy, like all the other Shetland series. Characters are interesting and well drawn, pace is excellent and narration spot on. A few real ‘jaw drop’ moments just to spice it up a bit too. A great read.

Shetland story revisited
After reading the Shetland series, I have started listening to the Audible versions. Kenny Blythe does a magnificent job of the narration. Blue Lightning is sad but atmospheric.
