What to expect
Vile, boorish Captain Bartlett, one of the guests at Priscilla's engagement party, has just been found murdered - shot while on a grouse hunt. Now with so many titled party guests as prime suspects, each with their own reason for snuffing out the despicable captain, Hamish must smooth ruffled feathers as he investigates the case . . . and catch a killer, before they fly the coop!
Praise for M. C. Beaton:
'The books are a delight: clever, intricate, sardonic and amazingly true to the real Highlands' Kerry Greenwood
'It's always a special treat to return to Lochdubh' New York Times
Critics Review
M C Beaton’s Hamish Macbeth books are a delight: clever, intricate and sardonic. The flavour is reminiscent of Compton MacKenzie’s Whisky Galore and I’m very glad to own a complete set
The much-loved Hamish Macbeth series… a beguiling blend of wry humour and sharp observations of rural life
The detective novels of M C Beaton, a master of outrageous black comedy, have reached cult status
It’s always a special treat to return to Lochdubh
Superb entertainment, as rich and warming as a fine malt whisky, and every bit as addictive
An enchanting series….M.C. Beaton has a foolproof plot for the village mystery
Beaton, a Scot herself, excels at giving readers a taste of Highland life and creating a believable character in the lonely, brilliant, continually frustrated-in-love Macbeth
Recommended for all mystery collections
