Death on a Longship
Death on a Longship | Marsali Taylor
5 posts | 5 read | 3 to read
When she wangles the job of skippering a Viking longship for a film, Cass Lynch thinks her big break has finally arrived - even though it means returning home to the Shetland Islands, which she ran away from as a teenager. Then the 'accidents' begin - and when a dead woman turns up on the boat's deck, Cass realises that she, her family and her past are under suspicion from the disturbingly shrewd Detective Inspector Macrae. Cass must call on all her local knowledge, the wisdom she didn't realise she'd gained from sailing and her glamorous, French opera singer mother to clear them all of suspicion - and to catch the killer before Cass becomes the next victim.

Cassie Lynch has been cruising the world in a Longship since she left her home in the Shetland Islands in her teens. Years later, she has landed a job as a skipper on a Longship for a movie that that has her returning home. While ashore, a death occurs on the ship.What transpires is an intricate plot, one that demands Cassie confront her traumatic past. Left me guessing!

Pleasant read with all my favorite things: #laphroiag #tea #chocolate
Ann Cleeves Shetland Mysteries are still my favorite. In those books Shetland feels like it's more of a character while in this series it's just the location. Feels like it's going to be more of a cosy series with the heroine stumbling onto crimes and boat settings. Will see how rest of series goes. #readmyshelves2018 #mounttbr #shetland

Think I'm gonna like Cass:
"I‘d have preferred the smoky peat taste of Laphroig, but the Redbreast burned nicely in my throat as it went down."

Ubookquitous Smoky peaty heaven in a glass! 7y
Crinoline_Laphroaig @Ubookquitous Ahh Laphroaig; such peaty goodness! 7y
Ubookquitous @missnavigation my favorite peaty scotch is Arbeg and Compass Box's Peat Monster! 7y
Crinoline_Laphroaig @Ubookquitous Peat Monster? Never heard if it. 7y
Ubookquitous @missnavigation Compass Box, makes some unique whiskey but it doesn't meet the official requirements of 'scotch' - Peat Monster, Flaming Heart, and some others. You can usually find them in a good liquor store. 7y
