About this listen
Long-listed, The McIlvanney Prize Scottish Crime Book of the Year
A body is found in the wreckage of a destroyed home. Consumed by the investigation, Inspector Jimmy Perez struggles for the truth in Cold Earth, the seventh Shetland mystery from Ann Cleeves.
Now a major BBC One drama, Shetland, starring Douglas Henshall.
In the black days of a Shetland winter, torrential rain triggers a landslide that crosses the main road and sweeps down to the sea.
At the burial of his old friend Magnus Tait, Inspector Jimmy Perez watches the flood of peaty water and mud smash through a croft house in its path. Everyone thinks the croft is uninhabited, but in the wreckage he finds the body of a dark-haired woman wearing a red silk dress. Perez becomes obsessed with finding out her identity and what she was doing there.
Then it emerges that she was already dead when the landslide hit the house and, suddenly, Perez finds himself with a murder to solve . . .
Continue the atmospheric crime series with Wild Fire, the final Shetland novel.

Likeable reader, interesting story
Enjoyed this story very much, although knowing that it includes two thirds of the total number of murders in Shetland as there have in reality been in the last ten years does diminish the enjoyment a bit!

Cold Earth
Good character development and detailed, atmosphere created of setting.
But the ending felt rushed and abrupt not matching the meticulous psychological writing in the rest of the book.
