The Bear at Midnight (Orkneyinga Murders Book 4) by Lexie Conyngham – Review by Erica Shoebridge

The Bear at Midnight (Orkneyinga Murders #4)The Bear at Midnight by Lexie Conyngham
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Loved returning to the world of Orkney, and watching the politics of life in Scotland play out. There are lots of interesting details and facts in this historical work, and they greatly added to the feeling of having transported from reader to inhabitant of ancient Orkney. Watching everyone wrestle with replacing their fearless leader Einar led to some interesting and heated conversations! Once again, a murderer strikes, and unpinning the clues to figure out whodunnit takes a lot of twists and turns. I found this mystery very difficult to guess at, and was surprised at the outcome – I was convinced it was another character! If you like unraveling murder mysteries or are interested in the culture of Vikings and ancient Nordic societies, you’ll likely love this one.
