When Inversgail welcomes home native daughter and bestselling environmental writer Daphne Wood for her tenure as the author-in-residence for Inversgail schools, Janet Marsh and her business partners at Yon Bonnie Books look forward to hosting a book signing for her. However, Daphne's people skills have developed a few rough edges after living alone in the Canadian wilderness for years and working with her is difficult. Things only become more complicated once she arrives. That night, a young man-an American who'd spent a night in the B&B above Yon Bonnie Books-is found dead outside a pub. Knowing that Janet and her partners solved a previous murder, Daphne tries to persuade them to help her investigate. But while she's trying to prove herself to them, she ends up dead, poisoned by scones from the Yon Bonnie Books tearoom. Now to save the reputation of their business-not to mention the reputation of their scones-Janet and her partners must solve both murders.

      In this second installment of the Highland Bookshop Mystery series, Lucy Paterson energetically characterizes American Janet Marsh and her friends as they help investigate multiple murders in a small Scottish town. Paterson effectively handles the various American and Scottish accents as well-known author Daphne Wood comes to town for a book signing, only to irritate nearly everyone there with her rudeness and abrasive personality. Not surprisingly, she's found dead. As Janet and her friends work to figure out how Daphne's murder ties in with two others, they find themselves in a precarious situation. Paterson captures the emotions and humor, making this a fun, light listen. It would be best to start with book one. M.M.G. © AudioFile 2018, Portland, Maine
