Description

From a “master of outrageous black comedy,” a cozy whodunnit mystery in which the guests of a party become suspects when one of them is found murdered (The Times Magazine).
When Priscilla Halburton-Smythe brings her playwright fiance home to Lochdubh, everybody in town is delighted . . . except for love-smitten Constable Hamish Macbeth. But his jealousy will have to wait—because someone at Priscilla’s engagement party is found dead. Now, Hamish has to act fast.
 
Can he save Priscilla from a miserable marriage—and catch a killer—before it’s too late?
