Death of a Bore

M.C. Beaton

Not bored to death but murder most foul . . .

Celebrated author John Heppel is known in Lochdubh as a self-important bore prone to belittling the scribblings of the locals in his creative writing class. So when he's found dead his mouth oozing ink it seems a fitting fate.

But for PC Hamish Macbeth the murder is more than a disruption to idyllic village life - especially when the media arrive trailing in their wake DCI Heather Meikle a maneater with a taste for bachelor police constables. Hamish must rekindle an old flame to escape her clutches and pull out all the stops to find the killer . . .
