In the sixth installment of the Shetland series, a group of university friends travels from London to Unst, Shetland's northernmost island, to celebrate a wedding. However, the festivities take a dark turn when Eleanor, one of the friends, mysteriously disappears during the party. The next day, her friend Polly receives an email that appears to be a suicide note, suggesting Eleanor will never be found alive. Soon after, Eleanor's body is discovered near a cliffside loch. Detectives Jimmy Perez and Willow Reeves are called to investigate the case. Before her disappearance, Eleanor had been fixated on the ghost of a local child who drowned in the 1920s, raising concerns among her friends about her mental state. As the detectives delve deeper, they suspect that Eleanor's death may be linked to a long-buried secret tied to the island's history. This gripping narrative examines the complex interplay between tradition and modernity within the community, revealing how past events can have profound and tragic repercussions in the present. The Shetland series also includes titles such as Raven Black, White Nights, Red Bones, Blue Lightning, and Dead Water.
