Death of a Traitor - E-book - ePub

In this addition to a New York Times bestselling mystery series, Sergeant Hamish Macbeth-Scotland's most quick-witted but unambitious policeman-investigates the disappearance of a local woman who is more than she seems. Kate Hibbert is all too eager to lend a hand to her neighbors. Although she has been a resident of the sleepy village of Lochdubh for only a year, in that time Kate has alienated one too many of its residents with her interfering-and not entirely well-intentioned-ways.
When Kate's neighbor sees her lugging a heavy suitcase to the bus stop, he hopes that the prying woman is leaving for good. But two weeks later, Kate's cousin arrives in town with the news that Kate has gone missing-and she demands that the local police step in.                                    Sergeant Hamish Macbeth is called in to investigate the disappearance, and soon he is befuddled by a storm of lies, intrigue, and scandal .
