I have just finished reading this Ann Cleeves Vera novel. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I have never read one of these before, primarily because I watch Shetland and Vera on television. I found with Bosch and Slow Horses that it becomes very confusing if you read the novels AND watch the show.
I used to watch Vera but found it was becoming much of a much series, after all there aren’t that many people being killed in new ways that have never been done before. I might read the books in time.
