When Eden's sister's body is finally found, floating in the sea, local police rule her death an accident, but Eden isn’t convinced.

Commentaires
I’ve always loved Shaw’s writing – the clarity of the prose and the terrific characterisation – but I think The Red Shore is perhaps his best yet
(Ann Cleeves)The Red Shore is crime fiction at its very best, a knotty mystery combined with a compelling personal story, set in a beautifully evoked landscape. I can’t wait to read more about Eden Driscoll
(Elly Griffiths)William Shaw’s The Red Shore takes fish-out-of-water Met Detective DS Eden Driscoll to the windy shores of Devon and a case involving his vanished sister, a dark mystery powered by a wonderfully constructed relationship between Driscoll and the young nephew he never knew he had. Shaw proves, once again, that he is the undisputed king of seaside noir
(Vaseem Khan)A gripping and wonderful thriller – and what a treat to know it is the first in a series
(Nicci French)William Shaw is yet to write a bad sentence, and The Red Shore continues that remarkable trend. Expertly paced with beautifully drawn characters, William weaves a plot that’s twistier than a cramping snake into the stunning setting of a small Devon fishing town. Highly recommended
(M. W. Craven)I loved it. A sucking rip-tide of a plot, a working-boat Devon setting so fresh you can taste the salt tang of the sea, a cast of spikily individual characters and, at the book's emotional heart, the original and captivating story of a bachelor uncle policeman and his vulnerable nine-year-old nephew thrown together by adversity.
(Simon Mason)A deeply accomplished and satisfying thriller. The plot is pacy, the cast is compelling, the setting is sharp. By turns funny, sad, shocking – and always riveting
