Death of an Outsider by M.C. Beaton

 








Death of an Outsider  (Hamish Macbeth #3) 194 pages

The most hated man in the most dour town in Scotland is sleeping with the fishes, or-more accurately-dumped into a tank filled with crustaceans. All that remain of the murdered victim are his bones. But after the lobsters are shipped off to Britain's best restaurants, the whole affair quickly lands on the plate of Constable Hamish Macbeth.

This was a cute, cozy mystery with quirky characters. The negative is that near the end of the story Constable Macbeth gets an idea and goes out of town. He returns and just tells the reader all that he did to solve the case.
