The new novel in the acclaimed Highland Bookshop mystery series finds
a true-crime author murdered in the charming seacoast town of
Inversgail--can the women of Yon Bonnie Books discover the killer's
identity before he or she strikes again?
True crime writer Heather Kilbride arrives in the seacoast town of
Inversgail, Scotland, to research a recent murder for her new book. But
if that's true, why does she seem more interested in William Clark, a
shadowy lawyer with no connection to the murder? Her nosy questions
arouse the suspicions of Constable Hobbs, the members of a local
writers' group, and Janet Marsh and her crew of amateur sleuths at Yon
Bonnie Books.
Heather's unconventional research methods prove deadly when Janet
discovers her lifeless body. Except the "body" turns out to be a dummy
dressed-up to look like Heather. Meanwhile, Heather is sitting at a safe
distance observing Janet's reactions.
Then Heather is found dead--again--sprawled at the base of an ancient
standing stone; and this time it's for real. Clutched in her hand is a
valuable miniature book last seen at Yon Bonnie Books, and now the
police want to know how Heather, the miniature book, and Janet are all
connected. But Janet and her group of sleuths have two questions of
their own: Who else is interested in knowing that connection--and is
that person a cold-blooded killer?
