From a “master of outrageous black comedy,” a cozy whodunnit mystery in which a meddling gossip columnist meets an untimely watery death (The Times Magazine).

Constable Hamish Macbeth is one of several victims of Lady Jane Winters’s searing gossip column. Yet not even Hamish thought someone would permanently silence her—until her body is fished out of the river.

Now with the help of the lovely Priscilla Halburton-Smythe, Hamish must find the murderer—but is he in over his head? Secrets are dangerous…and killers usually strike again.
