Description

Lochdubh, a remote village reached only by a one-track lane, nestles serenely
amid Scotland's hills ... until well-known TV reporter Crystal French races into
town in her bright BMW. And Constable Hamish Macbeth, dourly wed to duty
instead of the fiancée who dumped him, promptly gives her a summons for
reckless driving. Outraged, Crystal makes Macbeth's life a misery with a TV
report on policing in the Highlands. When she also rakes up old local scandals
for her new hit show, Macbeth notes that someone besides himself might be dead
keen to stop her. Then someone does—with stealth and violence. Finding out
who did it will lead the laconic Macbeth down roads he never envisioned, into a
dark story of passion and vengeance ... and perhaps a crisis of the heart all his own.
