PETER MAY: THE MAN WHO BROUGHT MURDER TO THE OUTER HEBRIDES

THE NEW START

Fin Macleod, now head of security on a privately owned Lewis estate, is charged with investigating a spate of illegal game-hunting taking place on the island.

THE OLD FRIEND

This mission reunites him with Whistler Macaskill - a local poacher, Fin's teenage intimate, and possessor of a long-buried secret.

THE FINAL CHAPTER

But when this reunion takes a violent, sinister turn and Fin puts together the fractured pieces of the past, he realizes that revealing the truth could destroy the future.

Review:

A rip-roaring thriller . . . thoroughly enjoyable (Mail on Sunday)

A wonderfully complex book (Peter James, on Entry Island)

The Lewis Man shone like a bright star out of this year's book lists. Lyrical, empathetic and moving (Alex Gray)

He is a terrific writer doing something different (Mark Billingham)

From the first page I knew I was in safe hands. I knew I could trust this writer (Sophie Hannah)

Wonderfully compelling (Kate Mosse)

Western France - now May's own stamping ground - is as much a character in the book as the Hebrides were in his formidable Isle of Lewis sequence (Guardian)

Peter May is a writer I'd follow to the ends of the earth (New York Times)

Instantly struck by the beauty of the descriptions of the wild island terrain as well as by the roundedness and complexity of the characterisations (The Times)

One of the best regarded crime series of recent years (Boyd Tonkin, on the Lewis trilogy Independent)
