About this listen
THE RETURN OF FIN MACLEOD, PETER MAY'S MUCH-LOVED HERO OF THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLING LEWIS TRILOGY.
A MURDER
The body of eighteen-year-old TV personality Caitlin is found abandoned on a remote beach at the head of An Loch Dubh - the Black Loch - on the west coast of the Isle of Lewis. A swimmer and canoeist, it is inconceivable that she could have drowned.
A SECRET
Fin Macleod left the island ten years earlier to escape its memories. When he learns that his married son Fionnlagh had been having a clandestine affair with the dead girl and is suspected of her murder, he and Marsaili return to try and clear his name.
A RECKONING
But nothing is as it seems, and the truth of the murder lies in a past that Fin would rather forget, and a tragedy at the cages of a salmon farm on East Loch Roag, where the tense climax of the story finds its resolution.
The Black Loch takes us on a journey through family ties, hidden relationships and unforgiving landscapes, where suspense, violent revenge and revelation converge in the shadow of the Black Loch.©2024 Peter May (P)2024 Penguin Audio

The plot is sensationally good.
What an atmospheric and beautifully written book. The imagery surrounding the natural landscape is transformative, making the setting every bit as important as character or plot.
Reading The Black Loch really is like stepping onto the Isle of Lewis and being surrounded by nature. It’s the use of the senses that weaves such a magical environment so effectively.
The plot is sensationally good. The past reverberates through the narrative, igniting old passions and grievances so that the present events are imbued with guilt, menace and threat.

Great story and narration
I know an audiobook is good when I can't stop listening. If you liked the first three books, you will enjoy this one.

A joy to listen to.
What a partnership! The two Peters bring these stories to life like nothing else I've listened to. I've listened to every book. You, as a reader becomes part of the fabric of each story.

Riveting and atmospheric
The first three books enticed me to travel to the Outer Hebrides. On re-listening I could see the stories evolve in their settings. I am so pleased that there is this great addition to the trilogy. A riveting listen! Full marks for Peter Forbes‘ reading with his wonderful Scottish voice. Thank you.

The sheer brilliance of revisiting of stunning characters of The Lewis trilogy!
I have nothing but praise for the Black Loch. The writing is superlative and the marriage of Peter Forbes narration with a great story makes it an extraordinary experience.
Peter May is such a great writer!

The narrater just transports you to Lewis
There is absolutely nothing to disagree with on any of the Peter May books and I really hope we don’t have to wait too long for another Fin Macleod and George Gunn scenario. Have read all of my Peter May books and am now hooked on listening to Peter Forbes narrate them. Having been to Uist and Stornaway many times, like you guys say it’s like living in a film. Off to download all my enzo books and listen to them. Top notch listening thank you so much Peter and Peter
