When John Heppel, a visiting writer to Lochdubh, first proposes forming a writers' circle, the idea is met with much enthusiasm from local residents. However, once the classes get underway, attendance quickly falters due to one undeniable fact: John Heppel is a long-winded, consummate bore. But is dullness a motive for murder? Hamish Macbeth wouldn't ordinarily think so. So when Heppel is found dead, Hamish begins looking for deeper meaning in the writer's stories, including a strange, unfinished soap-opera script that seems to suggest a more sinister motive behind its author's unhappy ending.Great Scot!

Reseñas de la Crítica

"This fictional world - part cozy, part unsparing - can be highly addictive." (School Library Journal)

"Quirky but well-plotted....offers humor, intrigue, and local color galore." (Kirkus Reviews)

"Graeme Malcolm's cool, dry chameleon voice moves from one well-thought-out choice for a character to the next, giving not just their many different lilts but also their personalities, with the deftest of touches." (AudioFile)

Good murder story, as always. Bad Elsbeth story, as always. Please let this be it.

This is a delightful book with interesting, quirky characters. The narrator is terrific. What a great way to ease the pain of Houston traffic. I can't wait to read more in the series.

I thoroughly enjoyed stepping into Scotland to see what Hamish is up to. I will continue to read the series to see if he ever settles down.

I love this series

The narrator once again does a fine job of bringing Hämisch Macbeth alive for the reader. Another M C Beaton murder mystery with a fine helping of romance and humor.

What does Graeme Malcolm bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Graeme Malcolm is one of my favorite readers.

Any additional comments?

Hamish Macbeth mysteries are consistently entertaining and the characters are familiar after listening to so many. Graeme Malcolm is the best reader for this series, his voices and accents bringing Lochdubh to life.

Another fun mystery

A mystery novel with a lot of humour and a touch of romance. An enjoyable read on a cozy relaxing day.

Love this series of novels.

When newcomer John Heppel, a writer starts a writing class, the locals are enthusiastic, but interest and attendance soon falters as they come to realize that Heppel is a long-winded bore. When the borish author is found dead, Constable Hamish Macbeth must look deep into his past and his writings to find the motive for his death. Hamish keeps coming back to an unfinished script of the author. But can a mere soap opera script truly be someone's reason for murder? Another great read in this series.

In this one we see the first appearance of Hamish's wild cat Sonsie. Elsbeth and Priscilla are there to make Hamish's love life more complicated as usual. All the other Lochdubh regulars put in an appearance, and of course Blair is there to irritate everyone as usual.

intriguing mystery

This is a really great series, you can become a member of the community. The tall, lanky copper is like an orange lollipop, but there is much more to him. I had read this before, but for the life of me, I couldn't remember who did it, even as things unfolded! The victim is the sort you'd like to eliminate yourself, but the killer is worse, so you don't feel ambivalent about Hamish taking him/her down. This makes it a cozy

The narrator is excellent, he sounds English, but does well with dialects and accents without making in unintelligible to Americans and Canadians.

There was a short lived TV series with Robert Carlyle, who is quite short. I wish they'd do it again, but with David Tennant. He would also be another good narrator. IMHO

Another brilliant solution by the redheaded constable. Someday he will figure out how to deal with women - and, who knows, maybe even get married!

Hamish strikes again!
