A review by ronanmcd
Raven Black by Ann Cleeves

5.0

Just when you think you know who did it, it all changes once again. Lovely, gripping stuff.
Really enjoyed the wider themes; parental bonds(in particular that between mother and son), the responsibility of family & the pressures of close knit groups, fitting in in shall communities, the construction of heritage. Lots of ideas thrown in, but organically, not at random. For a blockbuster, page turner this book gives a huge amount more than expected.
