I had a problem downloading Raven Blackthe 1st in the series from my library, it seems my card needed renewing after Jan 1. Anyway Red Bones is quite good. And with all these kind of novels set in exotic locals I learn a lot of new things like; bod, the fiscal, croft, the Hanseatic League and trows. The toughest one to find on the internet is fiscal which is short for procurator fiscal, a public prosecutor in Scotland and the Shetland Isles.
