  Not bored to death but murder most foul . . .
  
  Celebrated author John Heppel is known in Lochdubh as a self-important bore, prone to belittling the scribblings of the locals in his creative writing class. So when he's found dead, his mouth oozing ink, it seems a fitting fate.

  But for PC Hamish Macbeth the murder is more than a disruption to idyllic village life - especially when the media arrive, trailing in their wake DCI Heather Meikle, a maneater with a taste for bachelor police constables. Hamish must rekindle an old flame to escape her clutches and pull out all the stops to find the killer . . .

  Praise for M.C. Beaton

  'The detective novels of M. C. Beaton, a master of outrageous black comedy, have reached cult status' Anne Robinson, The Times

  'The books are a delight: clever, intricate, sardonic and amazingly true to the real Highlands' Kerry Greenwood

  'It's always a special treat to return to Lochdubh' New York Times
