Just finished Michael Connelly’s The Dark Hours from our library.  Like his writing style of the Bosch and  Ballard & Bosch series. Read a couple more Lin Anderson books featuring a forensic scientist in Glasgow working with the police in Scotland - also like the style and flow of the writing.  Continue to read historical mystery/detective type books. Find Michael Jecks series featuring a Knight living in North Devon during the 1320’s interesting.  Have also picked up and read odd current day detective books but as yet haven’t found an author to stick with.

Yup, go it today.😄

WN, Caihm Macdonald's fifth one in the Dublin Trilogy is at 99p today too. 👍

Have you tried Wiliam Shaw, Caro Ramsay, Denzil Meyrick, JD Kirk, Wes Markin, or Stuart McBride? All good series to be read in order.

Cheers Nellie.👍

N1805 - You might try this author if looking for someone newish. His Bunny trilogy books, of which this is number 5 😂, are very entertaining. Caimh Macdonald.

He also writes a humerous superrnatural mystery series, well 2 so far, under the name of C K McDonnell. The second one, The Charming Man, is at 99p at the moment.

N1805, I can't remember if you tried the John Pilkington series about the falconer, Thomas, or his small series about Marbeck set in 1600s. Might be up your street as they say.

Forgot to add that the first in the series is The Stranger Times.

It must be some kind of release mechanism for me just now but I've just read the third Shetland detective book, Red Bones by Ann Cleeves. I think I enjoyed visiting Shetland so much that I'm doing some armchair travelling too. Also we saw them filming Shetland down at Sumburgh lighthouse and I'm hoping I'll found out which book or TV story it was in. Have to say I rarely read crime books or even a series of books but it's a fairly light escape with no nightmares. 

I remember your pic taken at Sumburgh, Brue, and I never managed to match the shoot to anything in the books. Perhaps it was a TV invention. The airport features several times but that’s as close as I got .

I’ve finished the series now which is a bit sad.

I'm very late to these books, our friends on Orkney were hooked years ago and they would have moved to Shetland if they hadn't had other commitments. Which seems a bit strange to be drawn by a crime series.... But what a clever idea to set the books there!
