Description

When a newcomer arrives in the Scottish Highlands, police sergeant Hamish Macbeth quickly learns that honesty can be a dangerous currency. As a death draws attention to the town’s secrets and shifting loyalties, Hamish and his uneasy ally—Paul English—must navigate a web of motives where truth is rarely straightforward. Along the way, Macbeth’s own personal concerns—especially his unsettling fixation on a missing wild cat—add a haunting, emotional edge to the investigation. Blending cozy-crime warmth with sharp social observation, this novel explores integrity, community judgment, and the thin line between what people say and what they mean.
