Death Of A Valentine by M.C. Beaton



Full Description:
Amazing news has spread across the Scottish countryside. The most famous of highland bachelors, police sergeant Hamish Macbeth, may actually marry at last. The entire village of Lochdubh adores Macbeth's bride-to-be. Josie McSween is Hamish's new constable, and she is a pretty little thing, with glossy brown hair and big brown eyes. The local folk think that Josie is quite a catch, but Hamish couldn't be more miserable.
The wedding wouldn't be happening if it weren't for the murder of a beautiful woman in a nearby village. After the gorgeous woman receives a deadly Valentine's Day gift, Hamish and Josie take on the case. However, they soon discover that the list of the victim's admirers is endless. The case confirms Hamish's belief that love is extremely dangerous, but he still can't avoid the events that lead up to his celebrated engagement.

About Author:
M.C. Beaton lives in the Cotswolds with her husband. In addition to the Hamish Macbeth series, she writes the Agatha Raisin mystery series.



My Take On The Selection:
I really have to give accolades to the author right away, in capturing a new reader when this is the 25th tale of this particular character. I thoroughly enjoyed this book, and am to continue the journey, should more books come out.
Lots of suspense and mystery, but the best part was how deceiving the book really is. You look at the cover, and read the description, and may even think it is set in a much older time. When really you are in present day. It is quite easy to read, besides it being so entertaining you really don't want to put it down. I even found myself reading during commercials, while watching television.
A must read for any adults list!!!!

    I started listening to the Hamish MacBeth series on my MP3 and love them!

    I'm glad you do as well! And I will be watching for this one in January.

REVIEW: It was weird starting off with a He-Man lookalike, Thunder the Barabarian), until I realized a character from the film was watching the cartoon in the airplane. Still, it was kind of cool to reminice about two cartoons from my childhood. So many great actors bring the film to life! What a fun story it was too! Although
