Book Reviews of Death of a Macho Man (Hamish Macbeth, Bk 12)

Hamish Macbeth knows the men in Lochdubh are not sorry Randy Duggan is dead but he sorely wishes that it isn't one of the villagers who killed him. He goes to great lengths to find the killer and it leads right back to Priscilla, his former love. Great story and lots of surprises!

This is a cozy set in the colorful Highland village of Lochdubh, featuring the laid-back but highly intelligent local police constable, Hamish Macbeth. He finds that any number of the villagers had motives to murder the bragging, lying bully Randy Duggan who showed up one day and liked entertaining everyone in the pub with his tall tales. Hamish hopes the murderer is from outside, and enlists the help of his sometime girlfriend, the haughty Priscilla Halburton-Smythe to discover the truth. It is a very enjoyable series, with a great setting.

Typical MC Beaton mystery.

What accompanies a huge, tattooed stranger to a tiny Highland town? Death. A Hamish Macbeth mystery.

My first Hamish Macbeth book. Very enjoyable. I will definitely read more Hamish Macbeth books.

This time Hamish Bacbeth has a case involving a mean bully who claimed to be a professional wrestler and who was sneaking around romancing some Lochdubh wives. As always, a fun trip to the Highlands of Scotland and a great read.
