Publisher's summary

Marsali Taylor returns with the 10th nail-biting mystery in her much-loved Shetland Sailing Mystery series.

It's the dark nights in the run up to Christmas, and sailing sleuth Cass Lynch's first night on dry land is disturbed by strange noises outside her isolated cottage. Tiny footprints in the moonlit snow trail from her front door before mysteriously disappearing. Soon Cass learns others were visited by the same tiny feet in the night.

It looks like ingenious local teenagers playing tricks - but what happens when festive games turn deadly?

Cass soon finds out as a schoolboy disappears, leaving only a trail of footprints into the middle of a snowy field. She's determined to investigate, but uncovering the truth will also put her in danger....

Nail-biting and unpauseable, A Shetland Winter Mystery is the latest instalment in the much-loved Shetland Sailing Mystery series by Marsali Taylor. Perfect for fans of Ann Cleeves, Elly Griffiths and J M Dalgliesh.

After several hours …

I still have no idea what this book is about! Lots of descriptions, Scottish accented reader …. That is all there is!!! Waste of a credit!!!!

Boring

This book had such potential, but very quickly I realized it’s just muddled, disorganized and goes nowhere.

Very disappointing, and the American accents were really, really bad.

I feel like this was just a cash grab based on all the hype around Scottish mysteries over the last few years, I was looking forward to this book and barely made it past the first five chapters.

This is saying something considering that a)I live sailboats and used to live on one with my cat and b) that I’m obsessed with all things water related, Scottish, and am a huge mystery fan.

So sad, could’ve been a great book.

Needing a good overhaul…
