Love this series, but this is not my favorite. The setting is Scotland, not Hopemore, GA, so Mac's family, friends, even the noxious police chief are missing. Maclaren and Laura MacDonald are on a genological tour of Scotland, or they thought they were, until most of the others on the tour seem to have nefarious reasons for coming. When one of the tourists is found dead, Mac is deep in the mystery, despite promises made at home to Joe Riddley, her spouse. The book is very good even though I saw the killer from early on in the book. Enough other things were shadowed in mystery to make it fun. I did miss Mac's hubby, kids, grands, and the other inhabitants of Hopemore. (Hopemore must be a lot like Cabot Cove. For a small town, it has a HUGE murder rate! :) )
