Murder in the Highlands (Large Print Edition)

"Lady Marjorie at her fearsome best..."

A relaxing Highland tour becomes quite the opposite when the awesome foursome investigate a murder by the shores of the great Loch Ness. The untimely death prompts our octogenarian sleuth, and her pensioner friends to investigate.

A getaway next to Loch Ness offers more mystery than the holidaymakers have bargained for. It's not just Nessie lurking around the eerie shores.

Lady Marjorie Snellthorpe is frequently at odds with her cousin-in-law, Edna Parkinton, but they agree on one thing. They are determined to track down a killer.

Meanwhile, Horace Tyler and Frederick Mackworth are distracted by an attractive newcomer who threatens to divide the foursome. Murder in the Highlands is the humorous second book in the Lady Marjorie Snellthorpe Mysteries. If you like twisty red herrings, dastardly deaths and laugh-out-loud moments, you'll love Dawn Brookes's Scottish Highland tale.
