11. Having run out of Scandinavian crime novels, I've moved on to Ann Cleeves,

and her Shetland Island series.

She has three other series as well, but I decided to start with the Shetland Islands because the locale seemed so intriguing.

Because they're all coming in via interlibrary loan, I've not been able to get them in order. So, I finished #3 of the series last week, and am nearly finished with #4 - hoping #s 1, 2, & 5 will show up later this week. #6 is a 2014 release, so it may take awhile. In the meantime, since I like what I've read so far, I'll probably dig back through the older series in her catalogue.

I need some kind of steady fix for awhile, while I wait for the English translations of the newest releases by my beloved Scandinavians. I've been waiting for Arnaldur Indriðason's Strange Shores for, like, FOREVER!!!!
