Death of a Macho Man (Hamish Macbeth, Bk 12)
RobbieM avatar reviewed on + 71 more book reviews


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.
