Wild Fire

Author: Ann Cleeves

Shetland’s rugged beauty masks a simmering undercurrent of secrets in Ann Cleeves’ gripping “Wild Fire.” As Detective Jimmy Perez investigates a young nanny’s murder, he uncovers a web of lies that threatens to consume the close-knit island community. Cleeves’ masterful prose brings the windswept landscape to life, while her nuanced characters grapple with loyalty, suspicion, and the weight of the past. A haunting tale that kept me guessing until the very end.

Sometimes the truth is too hard to bear, and we create our own version of reality to survive.
