When Priscilla Halburton-Smythe brings her London playwright fiancé home to Lochdubh, everyone in town is delighted... except for love-smitten Hamish Macbeth. Yet the affairs of his heart will have to wait.
Vile, boorish Captain Bartlett, one of the guests at Priscilla's engagement party, has just been found murdered - shot while on a grouse hunt. Now with so many titled party guests as prime suspects, each with their own reason for snuffing out the despicable captain, Hamish must smooth ruffled feathers as he investigates the case... and catch a killer, before they fly the coop!

The much-loved Hamish Macbeth series... a beguiling blend of wry humour and sharp observations of rural life (Good Book Guide)
The detective novels of M C Beaton, a master of outrageous black comedy, have reached cult status (Anne Robinson The Times)
It's always a special treat to return to Lochdubh (New York Times)
Superb entertainment, as rich and warming as a fine malt whisky, and every bit as addictive (Houston Chronicle)
An enchanting series....M.C. Beaton has a foolproof plot for the village mystery (New York Times Book Review)
Beaton, a Scot herself, excels at giving readers a taste of Highland life and creating a believable character in the lonely, brilliant, continually frustrated-in-love Macbeth (Booklist)
Recommended for all mystery collections (Library Journal)
The second Hamish Mcbeth crime mystery, delightfully recovered and re-issued for all the fans of Agatha Raisin.
