“Life went past you in a flash, like a bus on a rainy night in Ness. You had to be sure it saw you and stopped to let you on, otherwise it was gone without you, and you would be left with a miserable walk home in the wind and the wet.”

Peter May, The Blackhouse
VB de Ruyter
“I started with The Blackhouse and now I look forward to any new book Peter May puts out. He’s the king of suspense in my book and evokes places so well I feel as if I’m there.”
