Summary

Murder in Paradise....

When Jane Wetherby offers PC Hamish Macbeth a holiday at her 'Happy Wanderer' health farm on the isle of Eileencraig, he is more than happy to accept. 

Unfortunately the visit doesn't prove to be the pampering experience he had been hoping for. Windswept Eileencraig is inhabited by hostile islanders, many of whom would be more than happy to be rid of the 'Happy Wanderer' and its proprietor.

And the company at the health farm is hardly better. The volatile party includes an ex-husband, an illicit lover and Morag Todd, an unadulterated snob who criticises everybody and everything. So when Morag is found lying at the foot of a cliff with a broken neck, no one seems too broken up about the event - leaving it up to Hamish to solve the death of a snob.

Great way to relax listening to these stories

Brilliantly narrated by David Monteith and make for a very entertaining way to relax and not only get to sleep but listen during this wee small hours when sleep evades me. Delightful stories in which the characters come fully to light by the descriptions from the author and the talented voices of David Monteith.
