Sergeant Hamish Macbeth is alarmed to receive a report from a woman in the small village of Cronish in the Scottish Highlands. She has been brutally attacked and the criminal is on the loose. But upon further investigation, Hamish discovers that she was lying about the crime. So when the same woman calls him back about an intruder, he simply marvels at her compulsion to lie. This time, though, she is telling the truth. Her body is found in her home and Hamish must sort through all of her lies to solve the crime.

Improbable plot but who cares.....that’s why it’s called fiction. At the resolution I was laughing out loud. Thank you M C Beaton for giving me the gift of laughter when I really needed it.

As always a great listen - with familiar figures and a new Murder with its twists and turns, mystery, romance and humour all in one story - enough to keep one’s interest - on a wet windy winter day !!
