false <![CDATA[Death of a Macho Man (Hamish Macbeth Mystery, Book 12)]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1173313493m/272137.jpg 272137 7 Everyone in the Scottish Highlands village of Lochdubh called Randy Duggan the Macho Man. Duggan went around the village and bragged about everything he had done and said he once was a wrestler in America and an explorer in the Middle East. At first his outrageous stories drew an admiring crowd at the local pub, but soon his bullying ways led to anger and violence. When the local constable, Hamish Macbeth, tries to break up a fight, Duggan challenges him to a public fistfight. But on the day of the scheduled fight, Duggan is found shot to death. Of course, Macbeth's superiors get wind of the fight and suspend him during the investigation. Macbeth has some suspicions about Duggan's real background--and the mysterious banker, John Glover, who shows up at the posh Tommel Castle Hotel shortly before Duggan's death. And what about Rosie Draley, the sex-crazed romance writer, who had been having an affair with the two-timing Duggan? Once again, Macbeth's career is in hot water and he must find a murderer to clear his name--and to get back his job and the cushy life (fishing and mooching around the village) he leads. 2892999 1 8 1996 Death of a Macho Man (Hamish Macbeth Mystery, Book 12) total:247|5:57|4:87|3:84|2:16|1:0| 247 932 314 14 4 0 false false Thu Aug 27 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Thu Aug 27 10:09:13 -0700 2009 Thu Aug 27 10:12:23 -0700 2009 more...]]> 3 0 false false Wed Nov 19 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Fri Nov 21 17:16:02 -0800 2008 Fri Nov 21 17:48:26 -0800 2008 more...]]> 5 0 false false Sat Dec 01 00:00:00 -0800 2007 Fri Nov 30 02:57:01 -0800 2007 Sat Dec 08 17:37:32 -0800 2007 TITLE/AUTHOR: DEATH OF A MACHO Man by M.C.

If you are not dating Hamish, and he has dinner with another woman, he is not cheating on you, and you cannot call him a philanderer. Untwist your knickers.
