Death of a Dreamer by M.C. Beaton

Hello Bookworms,
       I have another review for you today! Its a book for the mystery lover in you! It's called Death of a Dreamer by M.C. Beaton! and I can tell you, I loved it so much I have already purchased another book by this author!

Summary:

            Hamish Macbeth is a highland police officer with a knack for crime solving. But Hamish prefers the quiet life. That’s why he stays is his quiet town with his two interesting pets Lugs, his dog,  and Sonsie, a mountain lion. The villagers have their suspicions about the unmarried cop and his weird pets but he keeps them safe so they accept him. Hamish doesn’t like new comers to the village. They cause trouble. But when Effie Gerard, a local artist, comes to town to sell her art, he feels like maybe he can accept a newcomer or two every once and a while. When an artist named Jock Fleming comes to town, he thinks he can definitely get used to it…especially when Jock’s drop dead gorgeous agent Betty Barnard comes in for a visit. But the quiet is soon interrupted when one artist is murdered and the other is suspected of being the murderer.

Review:

            Death of a Dreamer is the 22nd installment in M.C.Beaton's Hamish Macbeth mysteries but the first novel by M.C. Beaton that I have ever read and I was not disappointed. It usually takes me a little while to get into a crime novel, but Beaton’s writing hooked me instantly. In fact within two weeks of finishing this story I went out and bought another book in the Hamish Macbeth Mysteries series! I give Death of a Dreamer 5 bookmarks and recommend it to everyone!!!!!!
