Book excerpt: In this gloriously illustrated companion to her crime novels featuring Inspector Jimmy Perez, Ann Cleeves takes readers through a year on Shetland. Discover its past, meet its people, celebrate its festivals and see how the flora and fauna of the islands change with the seasons. An archipelago of more than a hundred islands, Shetland is the one of the most remote places in the United Kingdom. Its fifteen hundred miles of shore mean that wherever one stands, there is a view of the sea. It has sheltered voes and beaches and dramatically exposed cliffs, lush meadows full of wild flowers in the summer and bleak hilltops where only the hardiest of plants will grow. It is a place where traditions are valued and celebrated, but new technologies and ways of working are also embraced. Whether it is the drama of the Viking fire festival of Up Helly Aa in winter, or the piercing blue and hot pink of spring flowers on the clifftops, the long, white nights of midsummer or the fierce gales and high tides of autumn, Shetland is vividly captured in all its bleak and special beauty. A book to treasure, full of photos and insightful notes about the stunning location of the Shetland series, now a major BBC One drama starring Douglas Henshall.

Excerpt: ... and large extent of bounds, and so remote from the ordinary seat of justice and judicatures, the inhabitants could not repair to the said judicatures without great trouble and expence, to complain when they were oppressed and grieved: That it is not only fit for his Majesty's interest, but will be for the great advantage of his Majesty's subjects dwelling there, that, without interposing any other lord or superior between his Majesty and them, they should have an immediate dependence upon his Majesty and his officers, being their greatest security against all foreign attempts, and oppression at home. "That notwithstanding divers former acts of annexation, yet, importunity prevailing with his Majesty and his royal father, their goodness and inclination to gratify their subjects, they had been induced to give away and part with so great a jewel of their crown, and To Dispone And Grant Rights Of The Earldom Of Orkney And Lordship Of Shetland, To The Great Prejudice Of His Majesty, His Crown And Subjects, And Contrary To Law." APPENDIX TO THE HISTORY OF THE UDALLERS. A slight sketch of the political state of Orkney and Shetland from 1669 to the present period, may be properly appended to this history. After the act of annexation, the revenues of these islands were let out to different farmers, upon leases not exceeding five years. These tacksmen are said to have been not less scrupulous than their predecessors in the office of contributing to the distresses of the islanders. In 1697, the Presbyterian form of church-government was introduced into Orkney and Shetland. All lands belonging to the Church then returned to the Crown; but since they were not annexed to it, they could be disposed of by the Sovereign at pleasure. Three years...

Book excerpt: Their names bespeak a rich past. From the Norse Hjaltland comes the modern Shetland: islands nominally Scottish, steeped in Nordic culture, closer to the Arctic Circle than to London. Important Neolithic sites are at Skara Brae and Maes Howe in the Orkneys. Holy Iona, island center of Celtic Christianity, the Isle of Man, former seat of rule over the Irish Sea, and Anglesey and Islay, homes of medieval courts at Aberffraw and Loch Finlaggan, are just a few of the more than 6,000 islands that form the archipelago known as the British Isles. The offshore isles are home to half a million people. Focusing on the eight islands or chains that have long supported substantial populations, this history tells the stories of Shetland, Orkney, the Hebrides, Anglesey, the Channel Islands, the Scilly Isles, and the Isles of Man and Wight, from their Neolithic settlement, to Roman, Norse and Norman occupation, to the struggle to maintain their uniqueness in today's world. Instructors considering this book for use in a course may request an examination copy here.

Download or read book White Nights written by Ann Cleeves and published by Minotaur Books. This book was released on 2010-04-01 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A stunning second installment in the acclaimed Shetland Island Quartet, White Nights is sure to garner American raves for international sensation Ann Cleeves. This series is the basis for the hit BBC show Shetland,starring Douglas Henshall, which attracted over 12 million viewers in its first two nights on the air. Raven Black received crime fiction's highest monetary honor, the Duncan Lawrie Dagger Award. Now Detective Jimmy Perez is back in an electrifying sequel. It's midsummer in the Shetland Islands, the time of the white nights, when birds sing at midnight and the sun never sets. Artist Bella Sinclair throws an elaborate party to launch an exhibition of her work at The Herring House, a gallery on the beach. The party ends in farce when one the guests, a mysterious Englishman, bursts into tears and claims not to know who he is or where he's come from. The following day the Englishman is found hanging from a rafter, and Detective Jimmy Perez is convinced that the man has been murdered. He is reinforced in this belief when Roddy, Bella's musician nephew, is murdered, too. But the detective's relationship with Fran Hunter may have clouded his judgment, for this is a crazy time of the year when night blurs into day and nothing is quite as it seems.
