Death of a Celebrity by M.C. Beaton

3.0

---

This 17th book in the Hamish Macbeth series doesn't disappoint. Television reporter Crystal French races into a small, remote village in Scotland and is stopped and cited for reckless driving by Constable Hamish Macbeth. She is in the area to do research for a proposed new television series, "Behind the Lace Curtains" which promises to uncover and expose secrets that residents of the village would prefer to remain hidden. Panic ensures culminating in a suicide and then, not surprisingly, Crystal French is found murdered in her BMW. What's going on? Was it one of the villagers or did one of the television people take advantage of the situation. A perfect little cozy to tuck into the bag or suitcase and take along to the pool or on vacation.
