Peter May

Fin Macleod, now head of security on a privately owned Lewis estate, is charged with investigating a spate of illegal game-hunting taking place on the island. This mission reunites him with Whistler Macaskill - a local poacher, Fin's teenage intimate, and possessor of a long-buried secret. But when this reunion takes a violent, sinister turn and Fin puts together the fractured pieces of the past, he realizes that revealing the truth could destroy the future.

The Chessmen

Pavonini

This one was alright, though I wasn't particularly compelled to read it at any speed.

Taking the trilogy as a whole, here's what stuck out to me:

- The repetition of certain words (like "desuetude"), and descriptions/phrasing was noticeable.
- The patterns we all slip into over our lives were fairly well-depicted.
- I didn't feel very invested in the main character partly because of his predictable patterns (similar to Don Draper in Mad Men - it just becomes tiring after a while, accurate or not).
- The most important thing I learnt was that Harris and Lewis are THE SAME ISLAND. I had no idea.
