The Seagull is Ann Cleeves' searing eighth novel in the bestselling Vera Stanhope series, about corruption deep in the heart of a community, and about fragile, and fracturing, family relationships.
Ann Cleeves is the author behind ITV's Vera and BBC One's Shetland. She has written over thirty novels, and is the creator of detectives Vera Stanhope and Jimmy Perez - characters loved both on screen and in print. Her books have now sold millions of copies worldwide.
The Seagull brilliantly evokes the run-down seaside resort of
Whitley Bay . . . a mystery as satisfying as anything Cleeves has
written

I loved The Seagull - quite simply it reminds me why Ann Cleeves is
one of my favorite mystery writers! I relish learning more about
Vera with each book, and The Seagull provides fresh insight into
one of our most complex and lovable sleuths.

Many years ago, I was part of a team looking into police
corruption. This novel captures the challenges and emotional issues
such an investigation raises in a way I have never read before or
since.
