Murder in the Highlands

A Scottish castle. A clan homecoming. A laird found dead on the hill.

Travel writer Ellie Hart arrives at Ardnacraig Castle in the Scottish Highlands expecting whisky, kilts, family history, and a peaceful feature for Voyageur magazine. With Biscuit happily following every promising scent and Moriarty judging the castle from the nearest warm hearthstone, it should be the perfect Highland escape.

Then Hector Kinnaird, the powerful laird of Ardnacraig, is carried down from the misty hill dead.

The official story wants an accident. Ellie is not convinced. Beneath the clan gathering, the whisky, the old game books, and the beautiful glen lie inheritance, threatened homes, buried resentment, and a secret old enough to change everything.

While Biscuit follows his nose through wet wool, whisky warehouses, and rain-soaked paths, Moriarty keeps choosing suspiciously precise places to sit. And Ellie must discover what the Highlands are hiding before the wrong person pays the price.

Murder in the Highlands is a warm, atmospheric travel cozy mystery filled with Scottish charm, animal sleuths, elegant intrigue, delicious local flavor, no graphic violence, and a fully solved murder.

New destination. New case. Same brilliant duo.

Travel the world with Biscuit & Moriarty.
