I'll Keep You Safe by Peter May

5.0

This is a brilliant read! What a great story, you will turn the pages furiously, telling yourself one more page, one more chapter. It's that good.
From the opening chapter and what a chapter it was!
In Paris Niamh confronts Ruairidh with the fact she suspects he has a lover. Ruairidh denies this and storms from the room. Niamh later sees him leave with his lover in a Mercedes car which explodes within seconds of them entering it.
Niamh is bereft, left with the task of taking her husband's remains home to the Isle of Lewis and not knowing for certain whether he was being unfaithful or not.
She has to get on with the rest of her life, not knowing if she had any life left to lead.
Enough of the story for now, read it and you will enjoy it.
I want to admit something here; Peter is one of my favourite writers. He could write the back of the a corn flake packet and I would think it great.
His writing is of top quality and he can put pictures in your head and what great pictures they are!
His sense of atmosphere and place is prevalent throughout his writing.
I urge you to pick up this book and give it a read.
In fact read any book written by Peter; you'll be in for a treat!
