Death of a Prankster by M.C. Beaton
4.0
Great Read
Actual Rating: 4.15
This was an enjoyable read. This is the seventh book of the Hamish Macbeth series. In this book, Hamish investigates the death of a prankster, Andrew Trent. His old flame, Priscilla helps him out with the investigation, and the killer is found. This series keeps getting better. I thought the plot was fast-paced, and more interesting than the previous one. I hope that the series continues to build on each storyline and make them more engaging. I thought the idea of having a cozy mystery with a male character was also something different for me. I thought Hamish was a great character. He is mysterious, but I am enjoying his character more in this book. I think his character makes the story fun and exciting. He is described as bumbling, and lazy. However, as I kept reading, I thought he was observant and skilled at his job. I thought this was a great addition to my first cozy mystery with a male main character. The ending was great. I am looking forward to seeing how the series goes. I am excited to read book 8. Death of a Glutton, here I come. Overall, a great read.
