Description
When Fergus Macleod—the abusive, drunken dustman of Lochdubh—is promoted to run the town’s recycling centre, he’s given a new title and a new platform for control. Soon, a bullying tyrant is found dead in a recycling bin, and while the town seems relieved, Hamish Macbeth quickly discovers that the people most affected by Fergus’s cruelty are reluctant to speak. As blackmail, domestic tensions, and business rivalries surface, Macbeth must navigate a web of silence, shifting loyalties, and uneasy truths—where even a little love may complicate matters. Blending cozy-mystery charm with sharp social observation, this case showcases Hamish’s steady instincts and M.C. Beaton’s knack for turning small-town life into a suspenseful, character-driven investigation.
