Ann Cleeves is an amazing writer. For those who love the Vera TV series, as I do, the books offer even more: more about Vera's feelings about herself and her colleagues. There's always a rich description of the natural world in the undeveloped parts of Northumberland. All in all, a satisfying mystery with in-depth descriptions of characters.
