A Slaying In Scotland,
This review is from: The Highland Fling Murders (Murder, She Wrote) (Mass Market Paperback)
Jessica Fletcher anda group of her friends from Cabot Cove, Maine, take off for teh British Isles and end up at a castle in Scotland. It would be a great vacation -- except for the ghost. And the murders.Scotland's most celebrated witch, executed long ago with a pitchfork through her heat, is said to haunt Inspector George Sutherland's family castle in the village of Wick. It's an intriguing tale and after a British book tour, Jessica accepts Sutherland's invitation to bring her Cabot Cove friends to the heather-covered Highlands. Indeed, after "roamin' in the gloamin'" with the handsome inspector, she spots a spectral woman in white in the gloomy castle. But Jessica's blood runs cold when she later finds a local lass executed in the same way as the legendary witch. Something is very vile in Wick. It's a case of evil, greed, and murder that pits Jessica Fletcher against a killer from this world--or maybe the next.

One of the best books from the series!,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Highland Fling Murders (Murder, She Wrote) (Mass Market Paperback)
Jessica Fletcher is at her all time best with this one. Once again, she takes off for a little rest and relaxation and finds herself in the middle of a muder mystery that takes place in Scottland. If you like ghosts and castles, this one is a must read. If your a fan of the show, you'll love it. But if you not, this book will suck you into the world of Jessica Fletcher and her friends from Cabot Cove, Maine

The second best i have read !!,
By David (New Jersey) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Highland Fling Murders (Murder, She Wrote) (Mass Market Paperback)
When Jessica is asked by her love interest, George Sutherland, to come to his family castle in Wick, Scotland, Jess is thrilled. She invites some of her friends from Cabot Cove along too.When Jessica arrives, she is greeted by a ghost. When an eccentric movie director wants to shoot there because of the ghost, it is all Jess can do to keep him off her back. But when a young girl is found slaughtered the same gruesome way the "ghost" was, the vacation is ruined. Since Jessica is always investigating the murder, she has no time to spare with Sutherland. The reasons that I like this book are because you get your favorite Cabot Cove chararecters in an exotic setting. Second, the characters are all two dimevsional. A great read!
