   Cap No hi ha cap discussió a Converses sobre aquesta obra.  smik | Jul 1, 2022 |   What's it about? A collection of short, crime fiction tales featuring some of the characters from Anne Cleeves' books, Willow Reeves, Jimmy Perez, and Vera Stanhope. What did I like? The stories were short, complete and were well written, holding my attention the whole way through; some even managing a twist in the tale. What didn't I like? There were too few stories? Sorry, but that's about all I could find to dislike. Would I recommend it? If you are a fan of Anne Cleeves, then, yes, I would recommend them, though they are only available in ebook form. If you enjoy crime fiction, but don't have the time to read an entire novel, then this may be for you, too. (  ) Sile | Jun 14, 2017 | Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya

Offshore, by bestselling crime writer Ann Cleeves, is a striking collection of eight short stories, all set on islands off the coast of the UK, and features cases for both DI Jimmy Perez on Shetland, and DI Willow Reeves on Uist in the Outer Hebrides. In 'Stranded', set on Hilbre near Liverpool, a young man's first love vanishes. In 'Hector's Other Woman', on Holy Island, we meet a young Vera before she becomes DI Vera Stanhope, and discover how she decides to enter the police force. One of the stories, 'Postcard from Skokholm', is written by Lynne Chitty, winner of Pan Macmillan's Bello imprint's short story competition, who introduces Ann Cleeves' beloved characters George and Molly Palmer-Jones to new readers.Ann Cleeves deftly captures the spirit of each island setting, and offers us a compelling new collection of mysteries.

The stories presented here make quick reading and included a couple that I hadn't read before. I found the inclusion of the first chapter of THIN AIR ( Shetland #6) a little odd. It seems to be there as a promo for the novel which was published later in 2014. (
