I am sad that the inimitable Morag has been dropped for the irritating Willow and that Jimmy isn't allowed a decent time to grieve before he is forced back into a romance (Ok, it isn't exactly 'romantic') but a quick and overall enjoyable read. I didn't find it as atmospheric as the others in the series and didn't sympathise with the suspects or the victims so, for me, it felt a bit flat/uninspired but only compared to the other Shetland novels. What on earth is Willow's sudden baby-mania about? I am a bit worried that it might heralds a surprise announcement and more angsty faffing in the next novel.
