Hamish has to work with and falls for a woman police officer in this one. Another fun read. I've loved every one of these Macbeth books that I've read.

Another great plot with Hamis now playing the part of an undercover officer who is supposed to be a drug lord! Unfortunately, Hamish has to work with an overbearing female superior. Hamish, along with the Det. Inspt olivia Chater, are almost killed when the cowardly, jealous Inspt Blair turns into a snitch. so much going on in this little book but Hamish get his man.

Kind of a contrived plot for one of the MacBeth series, but enjoyable nonetheless.

Fun, fast-paced mystery and, happily, no x-rated stuff.
