Synopsis

True-crime writer Heather Kilbride arrives in the seacoast town of Inversgail, Scotland, to research a recent murder for her new book. But if that’s true, why does she seem more interested in William Clark, a shadowy lawyer with no connection to the murder? Her nosy questions arouse the suspicions of Constable Hobbs, the members of a local writers’ group, and Janet Marsh and her crew of amateur sleuths at Yon Bonnie Books. Heather’s unconventional research methods prove deadly when Janet discovers her lifeless body—except the “body” turns out to be a dummy dressed-up to look like Heather. Meanwhile, Heather is sitting at a safe distance observing Janet’s reactions. Then Heather is found dead—again—sprawled at the base of an ancient standing stone, and this time it’s for real. Clutched in her hand is a valuable miniature book last seen at Yon Bonnie Books, and now the police want to know how Heather, the miniature book, and Janet are all connected. But Janet and her group of sleuths have two questions of their own: Who else is interested in knowing that connection—and is that person a cold-blooded killer?

Goodreads review by Cheryl on February 01, 2021

Better than the prior, but still kind of an odd reveal. Too many main characters holding back clues from each other for silly reasons. But as always, a fun read, good for picking up Scottish words, and nice scenery. Best if read one after the other.......more

I really enjoyed the series to this point. I don't know if more books will follow, but I hope so. I didn't know cozy mysteries was a legitimate category, and I have always been turned off by covers with cats on them. LOL But thankfully these covers were just lovely, and I am so glad I dove in. The S......more

I like to armchair travel through my cozy mysteries so this Highland setting is sublime! And it's enhanced by Lucy Paterson's entertaining narration. Made me feel like I was sitting in a cozy chair in the corner of the bookshop soaking up the atmosphere and watching all the village shenanigans. This......more

Goodreads review by Jenny Smith on January 28, 2021

Book 4 was far, far better than the last book in the series. I'd almost given up on the characters and their muddled way of detecting after Book 3. Book 4 showed promise. The characters were more likeable, though they still aren't very well defined. I don't feel like you ever really get to know any......more

Goodreads review by Joe on August 12, 2020

Sometimes you need a comfort read and this series has always hit the spot for me. Cozy mysteries are like visiting old friends and places with the occasional murder or two thrown in. Here, we pick up shortly after the last book and if you enjoyed that one or any of the other previous ones you will e......more
