The best-selling author behind TV series Shetland has announced the return of her fictional detective, DI Jimmy Perez. Ann Cleeves’ new book, The Killing Stones, picks up after a gap of seven years and will see Perez swap his hometown of Shetland for a new island location, Orkney. The latest book, from the author who also created detectives Vera Stanhope and Matthew Venn, will be published in October. Ann Cleeves said swapping the location for the new book was a “leap of faith”. #shetland #serie
