Death of a Travelling Man by M.C. Beaton

4.0

I love revisiting Lochdubh and the over the top characters there. Hamish Macbeth grows on me more and more. There is quite the scandal in this sleepy little town and it was interesting to follow the story. I love the way MC Beaton spends a good amount of time building the character of the soon-to-be murdered so we can get a real idea of the character before his/her demise. Then Macbeth goes against the rules to find out the true murderer....sometimes it seems like he is the only one who really cares about finding the truth. Typical Blare sabotage attempt for humor/drama. I also appreciate how much Macbeth cares about the people in his village and will do anything to protect them if he can; even the annoying people.
