Author Ann Cleeves has been reunited with her lost laptop after losing it in a blizzard on Monday.
Ann, whose books have been adapted into the television series Shetland, was on the remote Scottish archipelago on Monday when she realised that the computer had fallen out of her bag in Lerwick during heavy snow. The following day, The Scottish Government declared a major incident for Shetland on Tuesday after thousands of homes were left without power on Monday evening following significant snowfall.
The Whitley Bay-based crime author, who is best-known for the Vera series of novels, offered a reward for the laptop's return and told BBC Radio Scotland on Wednesday that people had been "amazingly kind" in aiming to get it back to her. It was eventually returned by a sharp-eyed Rachel."
