Ann Cleeves As someone who came all the way from Melbourne to Shetland Noir in 2023 and had the time of her life, I'd say to anyone who is contemplating going, buy your tickets now. It will be fantastic.

Twenty years ago I submitted a novel set in Shetland to Pan Macmillan . 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.

En castellano ya podéis leer los casos del inspector Jimmy Perez de la serie “Shetland”, de nuestra querida Ann Cleeves 😎


Okay, the weather might not be like this in February, but look what you’re missing by not signing up for Bay Tales #baytales26 !



Wonderful chat in the The Lit and Phil Newcastle yesterday with the magnificent Val McDermid . Happy 200th birthday to the library.

What a wonderful interview with Brenda Blethyn & cameo appearance by Ann Cleeves on #Spotlight Channel 7 🥹🫶 Thank goodness for re-runs of Vera🙏 which btw is on #7Two now 😁

Si buscas tu lectura de verano, haz caso a Lilian Neuman que recomienda “Noches blancas” de Ann Cleeves : “Es un placer admirar la capacidad de ejecución de esta señora que domina tan bien el género (…) y seguir a este investigador enamorado y desorientado por partes iguales.”


A huge thank you 🙏to Jane Hartley for meeting with us last week to share your experience of running Reading for Wellbeing in the North East with us. We can't wait to get our first session underway here in North Devon on Mon 28th July 2025! tinyurl.com/4c49ayyd Ann Cleeves


Woohoo! Delighted to announce that my great friend and fabulous author Louise Penny will be appearing Shetland Noir next year. Disappointed US readers, you’ll be very welcome in Shetland!
