Theatre professor Nicky Abbondanza is directing a historical film at a castle in Scotland, co-starring his spouse, theatre professor Noah Oliver, and their son Taavi. When historical accuracy disappears along with hunky men in kilts, Nicky and Noah will once again need to use their drama skills to figure out who is pitching residents of Conall Castle off the drawbridge and into the moat, before Nicky and Noah land in the dungeon. You will be applauding and shouting Bravo for Joe Cosentino’s fast-paced, side-splittingly funny, edge-of-your-seat entertaining seventh novel in this delightful series. Take your seats. The curtain is going up on steep cliffs, ancient turrets, stormy seas, misty moors, manly men, malfunctioning kilts, and murder!

Nicky and Noah are back in yet another fun mystery. This time they are taking a working vacation in Scotland to film a low (no) budget movie in a week. As usual, bodies start dropping and Nicky is out to find out the murderer. We have a new investigator and his colleague this time around, a bumbling Chief inspector and his love-struck partner. The cast of characters (pun intended is vast) at least until they begin dying off. Are Sidhe Fairies, Leprechauns, Seers, Sea monsters real? (I'll never tell!)
There are so many wonderful characters, lots of twists and turns, a very surprising revelation, and many laughs.
If you like a good, funny cozy mystery, established couples, sweet romance, cute kids and an all-over fun book to chase away the blues, this one is for you!
