About this listen

No one in Lochdubh expects Dorothy to stay for long....

She is, after all, entirely unsuitable. She's an uptown girl, used to a fancy lifestyle in the big city of Glasgow. She'll never fit in. And how is that work-shy rogue Hamish Macbeth supposed to get anything done when his new assistant is such a distraction? The village needs a police sergeant who can get on with his job, not one who's constantly swooning over his pretty young constable.

Yet PC Dorothy McIver quickly shows how determined she is to win over the locals, and she certainly seems to bring out the best in Macbeth. Then comes a brutal murder, and the pair find themselves plunged into a tangled web of conspiracy that acquires a sinister strand when the chilling shadow of Glasgow's underworld creeps to the Highlands and the peaceful village of Lochdubh.

Through it all, the bond between Hamish and Dorothy grows ever stronger. Has Hamish Macbeth finally found the love of his life—and can he track down the murderer before any hope he has for a blissful future is destroyed?

Top Hamish

This was lovely really quite sad but as I always seem to cry in my Macbeth books it’s more of the same. Pity it’s the last one.

A welcome continuation

I enjoyed this story after having read or listened to all of the previous in this series. The writing was good and the narrator was excellent as usual.

NOT written by M C Beaton

Very sad to say this book is a NOT a patch on the previous books in the Hamish Macbeth series. Instead of escaping into a cozy mystery set in a fictional Scottish village with interesting personalities you are faced with shallow characters, and too much talk of material things. I didn't finish listening, it's just too dull.

Terrible

DI Blair has harassed Hamish Macbeth and gone out of his way to make his life a misery for 30 books and gets to live on after being actively involved in trying to kill Macbeth in this book.

Hamish Macbeth’s fiancé is bludgeoned to death on her wedding day while he is at the alter. Truly dreadful.
