Mystery Cozy | Mystery Amateur Sleuth | Mystery Woman Sleuth
On a remote Scottish island, American antiques dealer
Kate Hamilton wrestles with her own past while sleuthing
a brutal killing, staged to recreate a two-hundred-year-
old unsolved murder. Autumn has come and gone on Scotland’s Isle of Glenroth,
and the islanders gather for the Tartan Ball, the annual
end-of-tourist-season gala. Spirits are high. A recently
published novel about island history has brought hordes
of tourists to the small Hebridean resort community. On
the guest list is American antiques dealer Kate Hamilton.
Kate returns reluctantly to the island where her husband
died, determined to repair her relationship with his
sister, proprietor of the island’s luxe country house
hotel, famous for its connection with Bonnie Prince
Charlie. Kate has hardly unpacked when the next morning a body is
found, murdered in a reenactment of an infamous unsolved
murder described in the novel—and the only clue to the
killer’s identity lies in a curiously embellished antique
casket. The Scottish police discount the historical
connection, but when a much-loved local handyman is
arrested, Kate teams up with a vacationing detective
inspector from Suffolk, England, to unmask a killer
determined to rewrite island history—and Kate’s future.
