DEATH OF A PERFECT WIFE

The Scottish Highlands are the setting for Beaton’s cozy mysteries. Lone police officer Hamish Macbeth keeps order while gardening, tending animals, and pursuing his elusive ladylove. Newcomer Trixie Thomas (a perfect wife) charms everyone as she bilks her neighbors out of their valuable heirlooms. When she is murdered, suspects are myriad. Davina Porter is perfect as an eccentric seer and stuffy police higher-ups. The wonderful Scottish accents and expressions are enhanced by this audio presentation. This little gem should appeal to lovers of British cozies. S.G.B. Winner of AUDIOFILE Earphones Award. © AudioFile 2001, Portland, Maine [Published: APR/MAY 01]
