Helpful Score: 3

This is a gripping and stupendous book! The main character, obstetrician Tora Hamilton, is very sympathetic and smart. She touches the tip of an iceberg of a mystery when she unearths a woman's body in Scottish peat. The location - Shetland Islands of Scotland - the weather - late summer - and the characters are all top-notch. The writing is rich and eloquent - S.J. Bolton can capture sultry romantic feelings in a few sentences, and the conclusion is as vivid as anything at the movies. This is a wild ride of a one-women sleuthing mystery and certainly sets the stage for brilliant mysteries to come.
