Description
Death of a Dustman by M. C. Beaton is a gripping mystery set in a small Highland community. When Fergus Macleod, a local dustman, takes charge of the recycling centre and becomes a bullying tyrant, his body is found in a shocking turn of events. As Hamish Macbeth investigates, he uncovers a web of secrets and silences that lead him to suspect multiple individuals. The case proves to be more complex than initially thought, with many of Fergus's victims refusing to speak out. With the killer still at large, Hamish must navigate a tangled trail of clues to uncover the truth before it's too late. This clever and intricate mystery is a treat for fans of crime fiction. M.C. Beaton's writing is known for its sardonic wit and accuracy in capturing the real Highlands, making this book a special treat for readers familiar with the setting.
