A very happy publication day to @StuartMacBride and Blood, Rust and Steel. Roberta Steel is counting down the days to her retirement but she has one last case to crack. That is before something throws her life into turmoil. @panmacmillan @fpathak

Twenty years ago I submitted a novel set in Shetland to @panmacmillan . No advance so no guarantee of publication. The book - Raven Black - changed my career. Today a lovely new edition of the novel is published. Still one of my favourites.

Totally blown away by the sinewy plotting of this amazing novel. Absolute Gone Girl vibes.
An absolutely unforgettable read that challenges our perceptions again and again. Just when I thought I had guessed, it tripped me up. Brilliant. @alicewriterland 👏
