About this ebook
Cold Earth is the seventh book in Ann Cleeves’ beloved Shetland series, which is now a major success for the BBC, and available to stream in the US.
From Ann Cleeves, winner of the Crime Writers Association's Diamond Dagger Award, comes Cold Earth.
In the dark days of a Shetland winter, torrential rain triggers a landslide that crosses the main road and sweeps down to the sea.
At the burial of his old friend Magnus Tait, Jimmy Perez watches the flood of mud and water smash through a house in its path. Everyone thinks the home is uninhabited, but in the wreckage he finds the body of a dark-haired woman wearing a red silk dress. Perez soon becomes obsessed with tracing her identity and realizes he must find out who she was and how she died.

not a great end to a fabulous series. Jimmy Perez has become like so many other character men in series he's angsting too much and has just too many issues. it was interesting in the beginning but he and the plots have grown tiresome. i love author and think she needs to go back to more Vera and work on JP.
