Death of a Green-Eyed Monster

By: M. C. Beaton, R.W. Green

Narrated by: Graeme Malcolm

Sergeant Hamish Macbeth—Scotland's most quick-witted but unambitious policeman—is back and may have finally met the woman of his dreams in this new mystery in M.C. Beaton's beloved, New York Times bestselling series.

Hamish's new constable, Dorothy McIver, may be the most beautiful woman he's ever seen. Completely bewitched by her sparkling blue eyes, Hamish spends the summer traveling with her up and down Sutherland until finally, he can take it no longer. He gets down on one knee beside the Land Rover and begs her to marry him—and to his amazement and delight, she says yes.

But just as the town of Lochdubh gets ready to celebrate, Hamish finds himself with a new murder on his hands. If he doesn't find the killer fast, Hamish's dream wedding could become a nightmare.

Critic reviews

"Longing for escape? Tired of waiting for Brigadoon to materialize? Time for a trip to Lochdubh, the scenic, if somnolent, village in the Scottish Highlands where M. C. Beaton sets her beguiling whodunits featuring Constable Hamish Macbeth."—New York Times Book Review

"Hamish Macbeth is that most unusual character, one to whom the reader returns because of his charming flaws. May he never get promoted."—New York Journal of Books

"With residents and a constable so authentic, it won't be long before tourists will be seeking Lochdubh and believing in the reality of Hamish Macbeth as surely as they believed in Sherlock Holmes."—Denver Rocky Mountain News

"Macbeth is the sort of character who slyly grows on you."—Chicago Sun-Times

"Satisfying for both established and new Macbeth fans."—Booklist on Death of an Honest Man

I so enjoyed the Hamish MacBeth series,. I stopped everything to listen to this. Such an interesting introduction - though I still felt a
bit as if M.C's ghost was with us as we started
the book.
If you buy this you may wonder Why as you hear the first few chapters. BUT stick with it and you'll find yourself in the Highlands with
the author: her village, friends and Hamish. You may find yourself making a quick search for "Wild Cat Scotland."
You will be charmed.

Might be my favourite one yet

Oh, how I love this series when narrated by Graeme Malcolm. The interwoven love story in this instalment was wonderful. Hamish Macbeth is a hero, a gentleman, and a Highland treasure.

Poor Hamish

You can tell this was not fully written by Marion but the story held up and was good, I’m still not a fan on the narrator, he’s very bland with the characters…

I love this series!

So enthralling that I hated it to end. You can always count on MC Beaton!

Great but

How AGAIN he got away with murder?!!!! Mary convince Hamish and he just let him go?!!!
He needs to be out, killed by someone else and that should be the next book about Death of a Bad Cop
