Mrs. Morag McPhie hits upon the idea of selling some of her old furniture to raise money to visit her daughter in Australia. But when a dead body turns up, Police Sergeant Hamish Macbeth wonders if the antique business is even more cutthroat than he thought... [summary via Goodreads]
M.C. Beaton has released a short story in her popular Hamish Macbeth series, where Hamish stumbles upon a murder while out visiting the single and elderly. It raises the question of whether someone would kill for an antique!
This was a fun short story. The story is short, but packs a punch with a murder for Hamish to solve. I liked that he was able to solve it quickly. While the story was short, it did remind me of how much I enjoy this series and I'm planning to read more books in this series.
While Agatha Raisin remains my strong favourite, I am fast becoming a big fan of Hamish Macbeth and looking forward to continuing with this series.
