HOLY TERROR IN THE HEBRIDES (Jeanne Dams)

When Dorothy Martin agrees to accompany her friends on vacation to the Hebrides while her policeman beau Alan Nesbitt attends a conference in Brussels, she never imagines that she will end up stranded and incommunicado with strangers on an island immobilized by a massive storm.  She heads to the island alone when her firends are delayed due to a health scare, and finds herself staying at an inn with a group of disgruntled religious tourists after she realizes that she forgot to bring the key to her rental cottage.  After one of the religious group dies myteriously, Dorothy suspects foul play.  Is one of the less than travelers a murderer?  Are Dorothy and her fellow travelers, stranded with a murderer who might strike again?

Holy Terror in the Hebrides is a fun cozy and Dorothy, despite her age-related aches and pains, is in fine form as she dodges danger and discovers clues.  Look for a couple of unexpected surprises at the end!
