Read by Graeme Malcolm.
When the townspeople of Lochdubh, Scotland, begin receiving poison pen letters, no one takes the far-fetched claims very seriously--no one except ace reporter Elspeth Grant ... Hamish Macbeth investigates, but not in time: the postmistress is found hanging from a rope, and it doesn't look like suicide.

good addition to a variable series

The reader for these mysteries is pretty good. I don't know if his accent is accurate for the region, but he is fun to listen to.
Plot summary: When the townspeople of Lochdubh begin receiving poison-pen letters, no one takes them very seriously. But Hamish fears that they might lead to something deadly, and his instincts prove correct when the town's postmistress is found hanging from a rope with a poison-pen letter at her feet. Though it appears to be a suicide, Hamish suspects something more sinister.
