#TheChessmen #PeterMay #BookSpinBingo #SeriesLove2024 #August2024

I thoroughly enjoyed this book as well as all the books in the trilogy. It's hard to say good bye to the island of Lewis and all the wonderful characters that we met on the island. They all seem like real people to me. Excellent plot which kept the pages turning and lots of surprises at the end. Peter May is one talented writer! read 2/8/15

EadieB This book is a reread of The Chessmen by Peter May. It is about the body of Roddy MacKenzie being found during a 'Bog Burst' which drains a lock of its water revealing a light aircraft. I read this book 9-1/2 years ago and only remembered a few things. I'm looking forward to the next book, The Black Loch, by Peter May published in September 2024. reread 8/11/2024 5mo

Spent the day in Boston. Visited a used bookstore, Commonwealth Books and bought the tagged book.

While waiting for the train at South Station, sat at TITS and got a glass of wine and started book. Now reading it on the train.

Pruzy TITS? 8mo

This is the dramatic conclusion to May‘s award-winning Lewis trilogy. Dramatic, tense, and fascinating. I had a bit of trouble distinguishing past from present via the audiobook, but that‘s forgivable bc of the impeccable writing🖤

A bit late with this!

1. Most definitely, that can lead to a book staying long in your memory.

2. The Chessmen had a real jaw dropping moment that had me reeling, also Blue Lightning by Ann Cleeves (still not sure I‘ve forgiven her).

3. Along with Peter May and Ann Cleeves I‘d also mention Hatlan Coben and Linwood Barclay.

Mollyanna Oh no Blue Lightning is my next read in that series. Now I‘m scared to read it. 2y
Andrew65 @Mollyanna You won‘t see it coming! Hopefully not given any spoilers. (edited) 2y
BookmarkTavern You‘ve got some good authors there! Thank you for sharing! ❤️ 2y
Andrew65 @ozma.of.oz Some of my favourites. 2y

This is the third and final novel in the Isle of Lewis trilogy. After a freak weather event, Fin and his friend Whistler discover a plane at the bottom of an empty Loch, with a body in the cockpit. This takes the reader on a journey into Fin‘s past, mixed with the present. This was an excellent series, and this book wraps things up well. This was my least favorite of the books, but was still an excellent read. Highly recommend. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5

Two dog beds right there, but they‘d rather be on Mama. Hamilton, the apricot/cream guy, really wants to get on the back of the chair but it hurts my back if he‘s up there too long, so I‘ve forbidden it today. He‘s sulking. Hazel, our red rescue, is just happy to be touching me.

With 67 pages to go, I‘m going to finish The Chessmen today. ❤️📚
