Description
When former drug addict Tommy Jarret rents a remote Scottish chalet to investigate eerie sightings of a sea monster, he expects a quiet escape—until he’s found dead, apparently from an overdose. Constable Hamish Macbeth isn’t convinced, and with Glasgow Detective Inspector Olivia Chater at his side, he follows the clues into a hidden network of trafficking and corruption that reaches deep into the Highlands. As Hamish goes undercover, the investigation tests loyalties, exposes the cost of addiction, and reveals how easily danger can masquerade as coincidence. Blending small-town charm with sharp suspense, this mystery showcases M. C. Beaton’s brisk, character-driven style and her knack for turning local folklore and dark secrets into a compelling whodunit.
