White Nights (Shetland, 2) - Tapa blanda

The body hung from a thick noose. Only when Perez went a few steps further did he see the mask, grinning.
At first, the hanging body seems to be a straightforward case of suicide. Shetland detective Jimmy Perez recognizes the victim - a stranger with amnesia who had disrupted a local party the night before his death.
Soon Perez realizes that this was no desperate act of anguish, but the work of a cold and calculating killer. And the small Biddista community is determined to keep its secrets.
Then another body is found . . .
Perez knows he must break the cycle before another death occurs. But this is a crazy time of year when night blurs into day and nothing is quite as it seems . . .
