I was looking for a new British or Scottish mystery and, even though I find those suggestions at the end of the current book annoying, this one sounded good. And it turned out to BE good. I would say it’s midway between cozy and grizzly. The plot was a bit all over the place but it was just book one. My goal was to be sure I could tolerate the team. I like that, for a change, the lead is not a tortured soul.
