Histoire
In The Lewis Man, the second book of the trilogy, Fin Macleod has returned to the Isle of Lewis, the storm-tossed, wind-scoured outer Hebridean island where he was born and raised. Having left behind his adult life in Edinburgh - including his wife and his career in the police force - the former Detective Inspector is intent on repairing past relationships and restoring his parents' derelict cottage. His plans are interrupted when an unidentified corpse is recovered from a Lewis peat bog. The only clue to its identity is a DNA match to a local farmer, the now-senile Tormod Macdonald....

While investigating illegal activity on the estate, Fin encounters elusive poacher and former childhood friend Whistler Macaskill. But while Fin catches up with Whistler, the two witness a freak natural phenomenon - a "bog burst" - that spontaneously drains a loch of its water, revealing a mud-encased light aircraft with a sickeningly familiar moniker on its side.

Description
In the first book of Peter May's critically acclaimed Enzo Files, forensics expert Enzo MacLeod wagers that he can solve six perplexing cold cases - and unexpectedly places himself directly in harm's way.
"Action-packed." (Entertainment Weekly)
"Brisk and thrilling." (The Baltimore Sun)
"Thoroughly engaging." (Library Journal)
Half-Scottish, half-Italian Enzo MacLeod used to be one of the top forensics experts in Scotland, and now he lives in Toulouse, working as a university professor. Divorced in Scotland and widowed in France, he has an estranged Scottish daughter and a French daughter he has raised by himself.
As if his life isn't complicated enough, he soon finds himself unexpectedly on the hunt for solutions to some vexing cold cases thanks to an ill-advised wager about the power of forensic science.
Meanwhile, in Paris, a man desperately seeking sanctuary flees into a church. The next day, his sudden disappearance will make him famous throughout France.
Deep in the catacombs below the City of Light, MacLeod unearths disturbing clues deliberately left behind by a killer. But as the retired forensics expert draws closer to the truth, he discovers he may just wind up the next victim for his troubles.

Another Peter May gem!
I was hooked the moment I started reading the Lewis man...then read all that series. I couldn’t get enough. I’ll be listening to the Critic forthwith !!
Peter May’s novels are ever unfolding. From chapter to chapter the mysteries evolve and keep you listening intently. I loved every word if it.
And Peter Forbes had the best, most calming reading voice, with just the right amount of intensity, enthusiasm and energy, and makes attach to every character in the novel with alternating accents. He’s brilliant too.
I’m a serious fan.

Another great story by Peter May
This is the fifth book I have read/listened to by Peter May, and it is another great story. All his books have well developed characters and plot lines, and this one is no exception. I can't wait to continue with the series.
The narration by Peter Forbes is excellent, as usual.

Plot was ridiculous but book was engrossing none the less
I just couldn’t swallow the motive and the clues in this story. There is a whole lot of symbolism behind the various clues left by the murderer and the protagonist manages to figure them out. It’s as if the author was trying to impress the reader with his intellect. On the other hand the book is well written and exciting. The Scottish narrator is a pleasure to listen to.

Overall I enjoyed this novel very much. I find the constant use of French words annoying however. If you write a book in English you should use English words. As well I am very claustrophobic so the end was hard for me to read. But that said, a good book. Perhaps the problems I had with it would have been solved by actually reading it rather than listening by audible. That way I could have seen how the French words were spelled to make looking them up easier. And I could have skipped ahead of the excruciatingly claustrophobic passages.

Not as good as the trilogy
While the plot was interesting, it took a long time to actually get into it- very detailed. It definitely was more compelling in the second half of the book. The trilogy novels were more real, more interesting.
