A brooding Highlands village. A buried skeleton. A secret someone would kill to protect.

Isla MacLeod prefers books to people -- especially loud developers like Finlay Fraser, whose plans to modernize the mist-shrouded village of Lochraven threaten everything she holds dear.

But when her spaniel digs up a centuries-old skeleton beneath a cottage marked for demolition -- and a new body surfaces -- Isla and Finlay are forced into an uneasy alliance. Together, they must navigate ancient curses, town secrets, and a killer who's always one step ahead.

Perfect for fans of Ellie Alexander and Midsomer Murders, this cozy mystery weaves folklore, slow-burn romance, and page-turning suspense in the heart of the Scottish Highlands.

?? Cliffhanger alert! This is part of a continuous series. For the full mystery and romantic payoff, please start with Book 1.
