About the Book

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, therefore 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.

Review :

"Beaton continues her well-loved Hamish Macbeth series with a crafty tale of murder in a small Scottish Highlands town...A smoothly plotted mystery."

-- "RT Book Reviews (4 stars)"

"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"

"Macbeth's stolid character serves as perfect counterpoint to both the scheming, sneering higher-ups in the police and his sometimes hysterical villagers...Delightful."

-- "Booklist"

"Once again M. C. Beaton has concocted an amusing brew of mystery and romance that will keep her fans turning the pages."

-- "Publishers Weekly"

"Well-plotted. Hamish's twentieth offers humor, intrigue, and local color galore."

-- "Kirkus Reviews"
