Who can you trust?

Accused of murdering the baby in her care, seemingly cold and measured nanny Lisa Stewart maintains her innocence. But when she changes her name and tries to flee, terrifying threats continue to follow her. Is she an innocent victim of public anger--or a calculating murderer on the run? Can Detective Marjory Fleming, dogged by her own past, uncover the truth?

This psychological thriller is perfect for fans of Tana French and Susan Hill.

Having started with number 7 in this series: 'Evil for Evil', I immediately went back to number 1 and have read my way through them all. 'Cradle to Grave' is number 6, and I'm feeling lost, as I assume it'll be a while before the next one is published.
Set as usual in the Galloway countryside, the action centres on Rosscarron House, which is cut off when the bridge, the only way of reaching it, is sabotaged around the time serious flooding causes a landslip which buries nearby cottages. Driving to investigate, DI Marjory Fleming and DS Tam MacNee drive off the bridge. MacNee manages to rescue his more seriously injured boss. Both then have to spend time cut off at the house, with no mobile signal and no working phone line.
A cast of interesting characters is introduced, including an ex nanny accused but cleared of murdering a baby, a dysfunctional family in Rosscarron House and an old flame of DI Fleming's.
Gillis Crozier, patriarch at the big house, has organised a rock festival but there seems to be some confusion about the nature of this as it's described as a rave further on.
A complicated plot with a lot of characters is played out in this parallel universe which is Galloway and the body count mounts up. 'Big Marge' is injured more than once and she's not the only one of the team. She has become very familiar over the course of the series - not like a friend, exactly; I would find her habits of tapping her front teeth and saying 'as yet' too irritating, but nonetheless I wish her, DS Macnee, DS Macdonald and DI Campbell all the best, along with her family.

I thought this was a muddle

I have read a number of Aline's books beofre and enjoyed them but this was a hopeless muddle.
Firstly I was confused by the geography. There seems to be a bridge to a headland but lots of people relevant to the plot seem to live on the other side. There is a big house, a row of cottages which get flooded and a row that get hit by a landslide. Where were they all? - well I had not got a clue. Where is the town? There seem to be 2 - Galloway and Kirkcudbright. The bridge gets destroyed - and then rebuilt in a few minutes it seems??? The detective gets concussed twice - but is still in charge of things (although having a relationship in the past with one of the villains?)
There are 3 crimes - a dead baby (that never gets resolved), some sort of fraud (that also does not get resolved) and THREE murders. Were they linked? - well I did not know. Anyway - who was it who got bumped off they all had simialr names - and were also ALL pretty anonymous - no friends or family in the book at all. One detective gets murdered, one has a breakdown......It was too too much...
How did it end - well - I read to the end but really - I had not got a clue......
Keep it simple next time Pleeeezee

I think this was the one where I ran out of Gift Certificate balance because I was buying so many so quickly

This author is to give a talk in a local library on 5 May 2015 and I saw it advertised, then went onto amazon, saw some of her books on kindle unlimited, read all of them and subsequently spent £30 on this series - in about a fortnight. I almost feel DI Marjory Fleming is part of my family, in the same way as I feel about the folk in J D Robb's books and those of Dana Stabenow. I am already looking forward to reading the books again, which I will do in about six months.

Mediocre.

Took me ages to get into this book, and it was well into the book before anything happened. I couldn't endear myself to any of the characters, and the plot was far fetched. I won't read any more in this series.

I love the way the author uses Scottish words throughout. Her description of seeing is evocative and beautiful. Great twists in this one - characters keep getting more and more interesting.
