tense
medium-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? It's complicated
- Loveable characters? It's complicated
- Diverse cast of characters? Yes
- Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

Despite the rating here this isn't actually a bad book, it's just much slower and smaller then crime stories that I normally enjoy, but that kind of suits the territory of the Shetland islands from what I understand.
The book is well written, has a better then average use of language, is evenly, but slowly, paced, has solid non-contradictory characterisation, and even manages to fit a few twists into a story with maybe 15 significant characters.

I am always upset by the reveal of the guilty party in this series.

I absolutely love the Shetland series, which has it all for me: beautifully crafted and interesting characters, splendid and rough landscapes, and complicated mysteries that keep me guessing.
This sixth book has also a a hint at a ghost story and is the perfect read in December when the days are short, and reading is done before the fire with a small dram.
Thank you again, dear Ann Cleeves for taking us into your world.
