The New York Times Book Review<br>A Hamish Macbeth mystery. <br>Wealthy Maggie Baird is neither nice nor kind nor generous. Once she was beautiful, but now, although middle-aged, she retains the appetites of a beautiful woman. When Maggie's car catches fire with her inside it, suspicion focuses on the five houseguests staying at Maggie's luxurious Highlands cottage: her timid niece and four former lovers, once of whom Maggie had intended to pick for a husband. All five are impecunious. All five had ample opportunity to monkey with Maggie's car. So finding who did it requires all Police Constable Hamish Macbeth's extraordinary common sense and insight into human nature. And lazy lout though he may be, Hamish lets no grass grow under his feet when it comes to solving a murder. Especially when he may be the next target. 657529 23 9 1990 Death of a Hussy (Hamish Macbeth Mystery, Book 5) total:319|5:69|4:117|3:114|2:19|1:0| 319 1193 396 21 4 0 false false Sat Nov 07 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Fri Nov 06 19:46:25 -0800 2009 Sat Nov 07 15:24:42 -0800 2009 1 more...]]> 3 0 false false Thu Nov 27 17:51:57 -0800 2008 Sat Dec 06 15:21:31 -0800 2008 more...]]> 3 0 false false Sat Oct 01 00:00:00 -0700 1994 Mon Jul 07 13:23:18 -0700 2008 Mon Jul 07 13:32:02 -0700 2008 Beaton, M.C. - 5th in series

WEALTHY MAGGIE BAIRD IS NEITHER NICE NOR KIND NOR GENEROUS.

About the best that can be said of her is that inside her middle-aged body, there still beats the heart of a beautiful tart.
