Hamish Macbeth V. Wealthy Maggie Baird is not nice, kind or generous. About the best that could be said of her is that inside her middle-aged body, there still beats the heart of a beautiful tart. When Maggie's car catches fire with her inside it, suspicion focuses on the five house guests staying at Maggie's luxurious Highlands cottage: her timid niece and four former lovers, one of whom Maggie had intended to pick for a husband. All five are equally impecunious; and all had ample opportunity to monkey with Maggie's car. So finding who did it requires all P.C. Hamish Macbeth's extraordinary common sense and insight into human nature. And - lazy lout though he may be, a thorn in the side of his superiors and an exasperation to his neighbours - Hamish lets no grass grow under his feet when it comes to solving a murder. Not even when the killer appears to be the wrong person.
