From the twelve-million copy bestselling author of the Lewis trilogy comes a chilling new mystery set in the isolated Scottish Highlands.

A tomb of ice

A young meteorologist checking a mountain top weather station in Kinlochleven discovers the body of a missing man entombed in ice.

A dying detective

Cameron Brodie, a Glasgow detective, sets out on a hazardous journey to the isolated and ice-bound village. He has his own reasons for wanting to investigate a murder case so far from his beat.

An agonizing reckoning

Brodie must face up to the ghosts of his past and to a killer determined to bury forever the chilling secret that his investigation threatens to expose.

Set against a backdrop of a frighteningly plausible near-future, A Winter Grave is Peter May at his best.

I enjoyed this book. It was interesting how the author wove in the effects of climate change into a good mystery story.

Excellent story, well read.

Is it poor sci Fi? Was author commissioned every time he wrote Northface? Not his best

Meh....

Not his best novel. I’ve enjoyed so many others. The reader is very good, wish the story had been better.

A novel set in the future yet not excessively dystopian. Believable characters and plot elements.

Excellent detail and overall plot

I’m enjoying this author very much, and the narrator is excellent. The writing is introspective and personal, much more about the people and the relationships than the action, though those scenes are well done. Good read.

Introspective and interesting

The twists and turns in this novel were great an kept me locked on. It is not too futuristic that it becomes irrelevant.

Future is coming

The writing was excellent, as usual, and the reader was great. However, I did not like the author basing his story on his political agenda. It was simply not necessary.

Too political

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
Imaginative, creative rendering . Lead detective character tortured by his past and present in the context of a climate change who dun it. Well narrated. Melodrama mixed with science which is not so implausible. You will root for Cameron Brody, the everyman, and hope for ourselves as politicians live down to expectations and threaten our future.

Blend of sci-fi and Scottish mystery

If you tend to listen while walking, this will keep you walking an extra block or three. There may be a few extra twists and turns but they all tie together at the end. Improbable? I fear not.

Another great listen
