A simple case of a missing sister. Or is it? When Ian Skair is invited to an ancient castle perched on a rocky promontory of the Angus coast, he expects to find a routine missing person case. Little does he know, the Laird of Drumlychtoun and his family have more secrets and black sheep than Ian could have ever anticipated. As Ian uncovers secrets and intrigues, thefts and legends, he finds himself and the family in a dangerous situation. Can he reunite the laird with his sister and discover the truth behind her disappearance? Or will the family's secrets be too much for them to handle?

Audiobook review:
I enjoyed both the story and the narrator. The narrator was easy to understand and I liked his voice.
The story was an entertaining cozy mystery. Ian was a thorough PI, being hired to find an estranged sister. Plus there was the mystery of the missing family heirloom ring. I thought the story flowed well.

I received a free copy of the audiobook from StoryOrigin and am voluntarily leaving an honest review.

Enjoyable cozy mystery

I love this detective, Ian Skair. He's a down home every day ok guy. And, of course, his wee dog, Lottie is so cute. He solves this mystery piece by piece along with other questions that pop up along the way. Very entertaining.

I was gifted an Audible version of this book from the author through Story Origin. The narrator gets 3.5 stars. He presents the story well. But he has this strong Scottish accent and I just couldn't understand some of his words. Definitely my problem, not his.

A very likeable detective.

The Laird of Drumlychtoun is the first book in the Ian Skair: Private Investigator series by Hilary Pugh and narrated by Charles Robert Fox.

Ian Skair is a former police office who is now a private investigator who shares a house with his little dog, Lottie. The Laird of Drumlychtoun has a matter that he wants Ian to look into and that starts off quite an investigation. There are quite a few twists as the investigation progresses and it is much more than just locating a missing person.

I’d already read the book and enjoyed it, but I really liked the audiobook. The narrator’s accent really pulled me in along with hearing the correct pronunciation of words that I’d mangled when reading.

This was my first experience with this author's work, and it was entertaining. I admired the setting of Scotland. I liked the character named Ian Skair, who was the private investigator hired by the laird. I loved his dog, Lottie. I enjoyed all the twists and turns in this case of the missing person. I'm looking forward to the next book in the series. I thought Charles Robert Fox's narration enhanced the story's entertainment, and I appreciated the Scottish lilt which added authenticity to the story. I was given a copy of the audiobook. I volunteered, without financial gain, to post this review which reflected my honest opinions regarding this audiobook.
