A remote island on lockdown. A killer on the loose. There is no escape for Inspector Jimmy Perez in Blue Lightning, the fourth Shetland mystery from Ann Cleeves.

Now a major BBC One drama, Shetland, starring Douglas Henshall.


Shetland detective Jimmy Perez knows it will be a difficult homecoming, as he returns to Fair Isle to introduce his fiancée to his parents. With the autumn storms raging, the island is cut off from the rest of the world.

Then a woman’s body is discovered at the renowned bird observatory, with feathers threaded through her hair. Perez has no support from the mainland and must investigate the old-fashioned way – alone. He soon realizes that this is no crime of passion, but a murder of cold and calculated intention.

There will be no way to escape the island until the storms abate. And so the killer is also trapped, just waiting for the opportunity to strike again . . .

Continue the thrilling crime series with Dead Water.

Critic reviews

An excellent series
Cleeves is excellent not just on the mystery, but on the atmosphere of Fair Isle
Rarely has a sense of place been so evocatively conveyed in a crime novel (Daily Express, on Raven Black)
Crackles with inner heat (Peter James, author of the Roy Grace novels, on Red Bones)

It is unbelievable that AUDIBLE do not quality check their products... the entire book was ruined by the fact that it always defaults to CHAPTER 20 regardless of where you are when using the ANDROID player.

This is quite a common experience with AUDIBLE unfortunately
