Reviews

I love this series. I have one more book to go, and then I'll have read the whole series. That bums me out. If you haven't read this series, I recommend it. Hamish Macbeth is the most lovable character. He loves his dog. Lives a simple life. He doesn't want a promotion. He keeps things simple. I just love this character.

Quite a slow build up to the actual murder in this book.

Death of a Travelling Man by M.C. Beaton

Blurb

Sergeant Hamish Macbeth finds Sean Gourlay too handsome. The agent of evil pretends to be gypsy traveller with gutter-mouth Cheryl, disrupts Lochdubh village. The doctor is missing drugs. The Ladies' Club is missing money. Spinsters Nessie and Jessie want to move. Did one of the ladies kill Sean?

My Opinion

How have I already reached book nine in the series? The problem with these books is that they are short so I can just fly through them. I am not sure what it is about these books that keeps me coming back, but so far I don't feel like I need to take a break from this series.

This is a nice cosy mystery. I have been listening to the audiobooks and it is just so easy to listen to one in an afternoon. A fun read, and it so nice to return to Lochdubh every time I start the next audiobook in the series.

Rating 4/5
