'NO ONE CAN CREATE A MORE ELOQUENTLY WRITTEN SUSPENSE NOVEL' NEW YORK JOURNAL OF BOOKS

A stunning standalone thriller from Peter May, alternating between the glamorous fashion world of Paris and the rugged beauty of the Isle of Harris.

WHATEVER HAPPENS

Niamh and Ruairidh Macfarlane co-own the Hebridean company Ranish Tweed. On a business trip to Paris to promote their luxury brand, Niamh learns of Ruairidh's affair, and then looks on as he and his lover are killed by a car bomb. She returns home to Lewis, bereft.

I'LL ALWAYS BE THERE FOR YOU

Niamh begins to look back on her life with Ruairidh, desperate to identify anyone who may have held a grudge against him. The French police, meanwhile, have ruled out terrorism, and ruled in murder - and sent Detective Sylvie Braque to shadow their prime suspect: Niamh.

I'LL KEEP YOU SAFE, NO MATTER WHAT

As one woman works back through her memories, and the other moves forward with her investigation, the two draw ever closer to a deadly enemy with their own, murderous, designs.

If you loved the Lewis Trilogy this beautiful story will not disappoint. It is difficult to describe the beauty of May’s writing. His words are so evocative that you can almost taste and smell the islands, and you can certainly feel the grief that Niamh is experiencing and the descriptions of the landscape, weather, characters, buildings - everything is just faultless. Flashbacks to the characters as they grew up gave a perfect background to the story and their stories were so warmly told that you almost felt you had grown up with them. Perhaps I am biased but I do think Peter May is a master of his craft and ‘I’ll Keep You Safe’ for me is definitely on par with The Lewis Trilogy. An absolute treat to hear, the narrators are brilliant. I just got lost in it.

I have loved all Peter Mays writing up till this book, but this one was an improbable plot with some unlikeable characters, but most of all, to stray from a full narration by Peter Forbes, to a shared narration with Ann Murray, in my opinion was a huge blunder. Her performance was stilted and wooden. Peter Forbes breathes life into all characters, both male or female superbly, and for me is simply impossible to match. Quite liked the nod to Lee Alexander McQueen's Highland Rape showcase in the story and as usual Peter May has captured the true essence of the Lewis and Harris landscape . I remain a huge fan and will listen and relisten to all the other Peter May books.

Shared narration spoilt it for me.

Unfortunately this was a disappointing story although written beautifully. The storyline was weak and didn’t progress very far. It was more a set of reminiscences. The protagonist was unlikeable as a character and the conclusion far fetched and unsatisfying. Peter May has written some beauties - this is not one of them

He’s written far better
