The Shetland Island series and Vera and the new one have such different characters, and the personalities of the characters have so much to do with the plots. :)jenclairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06046532245054911248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22616974.post-74423476473584315962020-05-17T07:14:32.080-05:002020-05-17T07:14:32.080-05:00The comparison would be interesting, Iliana!

I've been meaning to do it for a while now but always seem to get sidetracked by something else. I even have a library copy of her The Long Call on hand right now but the reviews were sort of so-so and I still haven't picked it up because of that.
