Death of a Chimney Sweep by M.C. Beaton
2.0

M.C. Beaton once said that she doesn't think her books are of the 'cozy mystery' Genre. I thought that was far from truth then. I always put her books on my 'cozy mystery ' shelf. Not this time. I just removed it from there. The book was a series of sometimes unexplainable killings, culminating with the traditional attempt on Hamish's life.
I used to enjoy living in Lochdubh when I read A Hamish Macbeth book; easy living within beautiful nature, and problems that were solved with simple solutions. The good always won, and the bad (evil) was always punished. This time this wasn't enough. Seeking to reach solutions was sometimes too unrealistic even for a fictional novel.
