Critics Review

M C Beaton’s Hamish Macbeth books are a delight: clever, intricate and sardonic. The flavour is reminiscent of Compton MacKenzie’s WHISKY GALORE and I’m very glad to own a complete set. - Amazon

The much-loved Hamish Macbeth series… a beguiling blend of wry humour and sharp observations of rural life. - Good Book Guide

The detective novels of M C Beaton, a master of outrageous black comedy, have reached cult status. - The Times

It’s always a special treat to return to Lochdubh. - The New York Times
