The new novel in the acclaimed Highland Bookshop mystery series finds a true-crime author murdered in the charming seacoast town of Inversgailâcan the women of Yon Bonnie Books discover the killerâs identity before he or she strikes again? True crime writer Heather Kilbride arrives in the seacoast town of Inversgail, Scotland, to research a recent murder for her new book. But if thatâs true, why does she seem more interested in William Clark, a shadowy lawyer with no connection to the murder? Her nosy questions arouse the suspicions of Constable Hobbs, the members of a local writersâ group, and Janet Marsh and her crew of amateur sleuths at Yon Bonnie Books. Heatherâs unconventional research methods prove deadly when Janet discovers her lifeless body. Except the âbodyâ turns out to be a dummy dressed-up to look like Heather. Meanwhile, Heather is sitting at a safe distance observing Janetâs reactions. Then Heather is found deadâagainâsprawled at the base of an ancient standing stone; and this time itâs for real. Clutched in her hand is a valuable miniature book last seen at Yon Bonnie Books, and now the police want to know how Heather, the miniature book, and Janet are all connected. But Janet and her group of sleuths have two questions of their own: Who else is interested in knowing that connectionâand is that person a cold-blooded killer?
