About this listen

From a New York Times bestselling author, Sergeant Hamish Macbeth faces a string of mysterious robberies that are only the beginning of an international threat to his sleepy Scottish village of Lochdubh.

Sergeant Hamish Macbeth is worried about how the folks will react to his new assistant officer; the enigmatic American James Bland, whose true mission is to track down the members of a Russian spy network. In the meantime, he and Bland deal with it the usual crop of traffic incidents, lost wallets, lost dogs, and lost people, but a spate of burglaries committed by a man dubbed “Spiderman” give Hamish cause for serious concern.

Hamish has to use all of his contacts and every ounce of his Highland guile to find the robber and protect the village.

This is another excellent Hamish Macbeth mystery with all our favorite character involved even if fleetingly. I thoroughly enjoyed the intrigue and the two distinct story lines were wrapped up satisfactorily. I enjoyed the new narrator, he did a fine job. Looking forward to the next Hamish novel!

Great Story!

I want to be fair and say that Mr. Monteath might be a good narrator but not for Hamish’s books. I hope Malcolm will comeback for the next book.

Another great story but where is Graemer Malcolm? ;(

I don't care for this narrator; his Hamish often sounds wimpy and his American accent is a parody of John Wayne.

As always, easy listen and fun.

The story was very good and typical blend of Macbeth solving crimes but also getting into a bit of “hot water” with the ladies in his life. However, the story was totally ruined by the change in narrator. It just didn’t sound like our usual Macbeth! So disappointed as I had been waiting for a special summer driving trip to listen to the next Macbeth story. Started the story and BAM- new narrator. I hate it when they do that. ☹️

Narrator change not good!

The narrator is talented! Many of the voices were terrific such as Blaire. But I’m not sure he knows Hamish. The “cool” factor is missing from him now and he sounds to be rather geriatric. The personality of the American was completely missing and forced. Sure hope these improve. The story was decent but not clever and fun. Just done. Overall average. I’m still thankful the characters are continuing, though, because I’d miss them very much if the series ended.

Ok story. Lacking warmth of MC Beaton. Narrator gets all the characters right except Hamish and the American.

I’m loving the new author. A very interesting and entertaining read. I can’t wait for the next book and am so glad to see the series and lovable characters carry on.

The characters are interesting and the setting is beautiful.

I loved everything about this story. It was fast moving, intriguing and funny. The character development was spot on and the scene with Willie and Detective Bland and Willie's malapropisms made me smile.

Extraordinary

I really wanted to like this, but the new narrator just doesn't capture the characters in a way that helps me differentiate one from the other.

New narration is a disappointment

combining a new narrator and a different style of writing was too much. it was a struggle to get through the book. I hope the next one at least goes back to the old narrator.
