From the twelve-million copy bestselling author of the Lewis trilogy comes a chilling new mystery set in the isolated Scottish Highlands.

A TOMB OF ICE

A young meteorologist checking a mountain top weather station in Kinlochleven discovers the body of a missing man entombed in ice.

A DYING DETECTIVE

Cameron Brodie, a Glasgow detective, sets out on a hazardous journey to the isolated and ice-bound village. He has his own reasons for wanting to investigate a murder case so far from his beat.

AN AGONIZING RECKONING

Brodie must face up to the ghosts of his past and to a killer determined to bury forever the chilling secret that his investigation threatens to expose.

Set against a backdrop of a frighteningly plausible near-future, A WINTER GRAVE is Peter May at his best.

Eleştirmen yorumları

A Winter Grave is timely and chilling, painting a disturbing picture of the future . . . it's a meticulously researched thriller with gravitas that grips from the first page . . . May's first novel in two years is among the best he's written.
May has created a chilling believable near future . . . an atmospheric locked room mystery . . . this is as chilling as much for May's vision of where the we're heading as for the body count.
A gripping thriller set in a near future ravaged by the climate crisis.
A Winter Grave is a superb thriller loaded with timely warnings.

I really enjoyed this latest Peter May novel, and the narration by Peter Forbes was top notch as always. He IS the voice of Peter May’s audio books. Quercus, please don’t ever bring in another reader! So this latest book in very good indeed, but not absolutely great, like the Lewis, Enzo & China series. I still give it five stars though.

My only disappointments were guessing the obvious ‘why’ as soon as a certain topic (don’t want to spoil it for other listeners) was mentioned. The ‘who’ wasn’t revealed until near the end of the book, even though there’s quite a body count. There was a nice little paternity twist later in the book, and I didn’t know which way it would go. I can see how the climate change topic fitted in with the 2052 setting, but wasn’t sure if May was employing the issue of fossil fuel use as a tool, around which to write a story, or whether he was lecturing me and reprimanding me for having a coal boiler and wood fire.

Very good, but……..

Another great Peter May novel. Another outstanding Peter Forbes performance. You won't be disappointed.
The future in which Peter May sets his novel is, helas, more than plausible. Peter May has shown once again that he is a great master. I am looking forward to more novels set in a future Scotland by Peter May.

Another outstanding Peter May novel

Frightening, dark, dystopian and at first I thought ‘do I want to read this’? I read it in 2 days gripped by Peter May’s page turning story set in a future ravaged by climate change. I never give away a story so if you love Peter May’s books (& also concerned on climate change) you should read this. Once you start you won’t stop. It may haunt you somewhat but maybe it should. The author is more than just a master story teller (aided by the perfect narrator) but a person full of awareness of the world he lives in. Also having walked through and stayed in the location there’s a strong feeling the ‘sense of place’ the author has. I shall certainly recommend it especially to Scottish friends.

Dark, frightening but another gripping story.

A great story diminished by setting it in the future, present day would be far better, ignoring how things will hypothetically be
