Résumé

A dead witness and a forgotten crime-Hamish Macbeth has never had it so hard as he does in this twenty-ninth highlands mystery!

When a local Scottish woman tells Sergeant Hamish Macbeth that she doesn't remember what happened the previous evening, he doesn't even begin to worry. She had been out drinking, after all, and he'd prefer not to be bothered with such an arrogant-and annoying-woman. But when her body is discovered, Hamish is forced to investigate a crime that the only known witness, now dead, had forgotten.
