Death of a gossip
(Book)

When society widow and gossip columnist Lady Jane Winters joins the fishing class, she wastes no time in ruffling the feathers -- or was it fins? -- of those around her. Among the victims of her sharp tongue and unladylike manner is Lochdubh Constable Hamish Macbeth. Yet not even Hamish thinks someone will permanently silence Lady Jane's shrills -- until her strangled body is fished out of the river. Now, with the help of the lovely Priscilla Halburton-Smythe, Hamish must angle through the choppy waters of the tattler's life to find the murderer and stun all with his discovery of secrets left hidden too long.
