Description

Done, dusted . . . and dead!

Armed with a bucket and mop, Mrs Gillespie brings misery into the quiet life of Hamish Macbeth when he wins her cleaning services in a church raffle; she is likely to do more snooping than hoovering. Yet Hamish has more upsetting issues to ponder - his former girlfriend, reporter Elspeth Grant, is back in Lochdubh for a holiday with her new boyfriend.

Hamish feels an ill wind coming and sure enough, Mrs Gillespie is soon found dead under suspicious circumstances. And as he investigates the case, Elspeth s presence torments the red-haired bobby, making him resort to foolish antics instead of concentrating on the murder in hand. And what should really occupy Macbeth are the town s hidden secrets - ones that will force a killer to lash out in deadly, irrevocable acts . . .

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
