The Swick and the Dead: Loch Lonach Mysteries: Book Two (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780998985817)

After finding the body of a murdered colleague, amateur sleuth Ginny Forbes agrees to assist the police in their investigation. Her efforts bring her to the attention of the shadowy figure behind the pipeline of death running from south of the border to her home on the banks of Loch Lonach. The resulting conflict puts Ginny squarely in the line of fire, forcing her to choose between common sense and courage.

In the manner of Peter Wimsey, Miss Marple, and Brother Cadfael comes a series of murder mysteries set in a community peopled by evocative characters that read like old friends. The distinctive Scottish voices offer a glimpse into a world not usually open to modern mystery readers and the deftly woven tales of deceit and greed will have all comers cheering the triumph of good over evil. The men in kilts just make it that much more fun.
