Another enjoyable mystery. The author has a way of making the person who is murdered so repulsive & despicable that there is no love lost when they’re done in. The main characters are very likable and I’m highly intrigued at certain relationship developments.

Review - The wide collection of characters in this novel gave it oomph, and although you didn't have time to get to know them all, it was interesting to see them through the eyes of Priscilla, as well as Hamish. I thought that the mystery was very clever, and the blatant way that the murder seemed to be carried out made for an interesting whodunnit. The apple in the mouth was a nice touch.
