Beaton's books have never failed to please; this one wasn't any different. Loved it
Cheryl R. (Spuddie) -
Ninth entry in the Hamish MacBeth cozy Scottish police procedural series in which a pair of travelers show up in an old converted bus in Lochdubh and Hamish immediately senses something amiss. Ruggedly handsome Sean and his scrawny girlfriend Cheryl seem to have brought nothing but ill will with them, though there's nothing specific that Hamish can arrest them for, nor even hassle them about. None of the villagers will have anything bad to say about the pair--until Sean ends up with his head bashed in in the bus. And Hamish has enough on his plate, as he's been promoted to Sergeant and how has a PC, Willie, who stays at the police station with him. Willie is a cleaning fanatic and is driving Hamish mad! Enjoyable read and as always a visit with Hamish is sure to put a smile on my face.
This has become one of my favorite authors. Thanks to PBS I found this author. I highly recommend this book to mystery lovers.

Beaton's Hamish Macbeth is always delightful. His slow rhythms, friendly bending of the law and keen mind make for very entertaining mysteries.

The best in the series so far. Not the usual formula for solving the crime and good character development.
