About this listen

 When John Heppel, a visiting writer to Lochdubh, first proposes forming a writers' circle, the idea is met with much enthusiasm from local residents. However, once the classes get underway, attendance quickly falters due to one undeniable fact: John Heppel is a long-winded, consummate bore. But is dullness a motive for murder? Hamish Macbeth wouldn't ordinarily think so. So when Heppel is found dead, Hamish begins looking for deeper meaning in the writer's stories, including a strange, unfinished soap-opera script that seems to suggest a more sinister motive behind its author's unhappy ending.©2005 Marion Chesney (P)2005 BBC Audiobooks America Detective Fiction Mystery Police Procedural Suspense Traditional Detectives

What the critics say

"This fictional world - part cozy, part unsparing - can be highly addictive." (School Library Journal)

"Quirky but well-plotted....offers humor, intrigue, and local color galore." (Kirkus Reviews)

"Graeme Malcolm's cool, dry chameleon voice moves from one well-thought-out choice for a character to the next, giving not just their many different lilts but also their personalities, with the deftest of touches." (AudioFile)
