After receiving a report from a woman in the small Highlands village of Cronish, Sergeant Hamish Macbeth is rather alarmed...  

She has been brutally attacked, meaning that a dangerous criminal is on the loose.  But is she lying about parts of this crime?  Calling back about an intruder in her house, Hamish takes the claim with a pinch of salt.  However, her body has now been found in her home... 

It is now up to Hamish to solve the mystery of her murder.
