"Death of a Snob"

Book 6 in the Hamish Macbeth Mysteries was a short one so a very quick read! Hamish is feeling a little sorry for himself because he has a head cold and no where to go for Christmas. However, things begin to look up when Jane Wetherby, an acquaintance of Priscilla's, invites him to spend Christmas with her on Eileencraig (a lonely Scottish Island) at the health farm she owns. She has no paying guests but has invited a few of her friends to stay for the holidays. She confides in him that she thinks someone may be trying to murder her and asks him to investigate quietly. It's an unusual mix of guests and one in particular, Heather Todd, manages to get under everyone's skin so, when she disappears, no one is really too unhappy but a search for her is underway nonetheless. Hamish has a fellow guest who is helping him with his sleuthing -- could there be a romance in the air? You'll have to read it to find out!
