Please read and release.

I saw the book on the Go Hunting page, and luckily it was still on the shelf! I will journal the book and pass it around the group at the Calgary BC Meetup. Thanks Library Booster.

This is the second book in the Hamish Macbeth series that I have read. While this story had a good murder mystery plot, I thought the author spoiled it with women's equality issues which didn't add to the plot or character development. Interestingly this book also had Hamish dosed with Rohypnol, which is an odd occurance in a small village.

The other Hamish Macbeth book I've read is the latest in the series, Death of a Valentine, which had a female constable use Rohypnol on Hamish to coerce him into marriage.

To help this book travel, I am adding it to a cozy mystery bookbox hosted by affinity4books.

This came home in my Cozy Mystery Box. Thanks for sharing! I may include it in the next round of the box or share it with another BCer. I have read a few in Beaton's other series but have not tried a Hamish one before.
