Overview

Easy To Fall In Love With Scotland. Harder To Survive The Fall. Joana has just about managed to unpack her kettle in her new Aberdeenshire cottage when DCI Fraser arrives with an inconvenient favour to ask. Someone is picking off the guests at Lord Montgomery's exclusive Highland matchmaking events... And Fraser needs Joana and Brian to ask awkward questions without causing a scandal within the Scottish aristocracy. What follows is an investigation that takes them from crumbling castles and foggy clifftops to tartan-draped soirées and the most passive-aggressive tea rooms in the British Isles. Along the way, they must navigate eccentric aristocrats, devastating canapés, one very angry Highland cow, and - perhaps most perilously - each other. Joana and Brian bicker. They blunder. They occasionally border on brilliant. As the body count rises and the suspects get increasingly cavalier, their supposedly discreet favour begins to look suspiciously like actual danger. Typical. Atmospheric, wickedly funny, and fiendishly plotted, Respectable Murders is the perfect read for anyone who has ever suspected that the Scottish upper classes are hiding something - and been entirely right. With a sleuthing duo whose banter is nearly as dangerous as the killer, this is a delightfully witty, distinctly British cosy mystery that will keep you turning pages well past bedtime. Perfect for fans of M.C. Beaton and Robert Thorogood.
