- 'Fantastic. Ann Cleeves is a stone cold genius' – Marian Keyes, Sunday Times bestselling author of My Favorite Mistake For the first time since the beloved Shetland series, Detective Jimmy Perez is back.

A Neolithic stone, bearing cryptic, ancient inscriptions. Now living in Orkney with his partner, Willow, and their young son, Perez is drawn into a case that is chillingly personal – Archie was a friend from his own childhood.
