review 1: John McAllister leads a small newspaper staff determined to move the weekly Highland Gazette into the mid-20th century. However, when the business manager, an older lady who holds the paper’s production together, is murdered things threaten to fall apart. It doesn’t help that the deputy editor is in prison charged with the killing. The setting and most of the characters show a lot of promise for an interesting series. However I found, Joanne Ross, the central figure, quite repulsive. In this installment she graduates from being an abused wife to an infatuation with a possibly homicidal stranger. Can’t think of any reason to continue on to future installments in the series as long as she is in it.
review 2: This author keeps getting better, for me th... moree 4 stars comes from the variety of characters the author has created, the setting (both time and place), the newspaper and the end of this book, I finished it very satisfied with how all the story lines were wrapped up. Two of my favourite characters in this series are Jimmy and Jenny McPhee, I do hope the author continues their stories in future books. I hope there are many books to come in this series. less
