Title: Death of a Gossip (Hamish Macbeth Mysteries, No. 1)

Author: M. C. Beaton

KDL Description:

Right, so there’s a part of me that’s terribly embarrassed to admit this, but I—gasp—really enjoyed Death of a Gossip by MC Beaton. It’s old, and a cozy mystery, and everything is very quaint and Scottish and “och” and “aye,” and I never would have picked it up if elderly lady patrons didn’t insist I read it… but the main character is absolutely fantastic and I couldn’t get enough of it.

Amazon Description:

Jane Winters—Lady Jane—was a noted gossip columnist enrolled in the Lachdubh School of Casting (fish casting, that is). She had something on everyone in class—and so, bobby Hamish Macbeth figured, any one of them could have killed her. Martin’s.
