"Macbeth, when roused to action, is very canny at solving
mysteries, and the Highlands setting is always satisfying. A fine
mix of eccentric characters, vivid landscape, and engaging
mystery." --Booklist
"The latest appearance by the charming Scot...provides all the
quirky characters and striking Highlands scenery you could want,
along with one of Beaton's most successful mysteries."--Kirkus
"Hamish Macbeth is that most unusual character, one to whom the
reader returns because of his charming flaws. May he never get
promoted."--New York Journal of Books
"Longing for escape? Tired of waiting for Brigadoon to materialize?
Time for a trip to Lochdubh, the scenic, if somnolent, village in
the Scottish Highlands where M. C. Beaton sets her beguiling
whodunits featuring Constable Hamish Macbeth."--New York Times Book
Review
"Macbeth is the sort of character who slyly grows on you."--Chicago
Sun-Times

before tourists will be seeking Lochdubh and believing in the
reality of Hamish Macbeth as surely as they believed in Sherlock
Holmes."--Denver Rocky Mountain News
