![]() ![]() It’s very slow reading and I had to lower my expectations of getting to grips with solving the murder mystery, because that is not the main element of this book and actually it’s not too difficult to work out who the murderer is. ![]() ![]() There’s a murder and a mystery, an investigation by the police, but most of the book is not really a detective story, or a police procedural. But when I realised that it was the second in a trilogy I decided to read the first book first and it’s only been in these last few weeks that I’ve borrowed The Blackhouse from the library and read it.Īs I was reading The Blackhouse I wasn’t sure how to categorise it. I was drawn to it because of its title and its historical reference – a man found buried in a peat bog on the Isle of Lewis. I first became aware of Peter May’s books when I saw The Lewis Man in a bookshop when we were on holiday in Glencoe last September. ![]()
