Presented here, in one audio edition, are the first two Hamish Macbeth Mysteries: Death of a Gossip and Death of a Cad
Death of a Gossip ? When society widow and gossip columnist Lady Jane Winters joined the fishing class, she wasted no time in ruffling feathers. Among the victims of her sharp tongue and unladylike manner was Constable Hamish Macbeth. Yet not even Hamish thought someone would permanently silence Lady Jane’s shrills ? until her strangled body is fished out of the river. Now Hamish must angle through the choppy waters of the tattler’s life to find the murderer.
Death of a Cad ? When Priscilla Halburton-Smythe brings her London playwright fiancé home to Lochdubh, everyone in town is delighted ? except Constable Hamish Macbeth. Yet his affairs of the heart will have to wait. Vile, boorish Captain Bartlett, a guest at Priscilla’s engagement party, has been found murdered ? shot while on a grouse hunt. With many Titled party guests as suspects, each with a reason for killing the man, Hamish must smooth ruffled feathers as he investigates.
