About this listen

When Fergus Macleod, Lochdubh's abusive, drunk dustman is put in charge of the local recycling centre and is dubbed the 'Environment Officer', Hamish Macbeth smells trouble. Sure enough, Fergus, imbued with his new powers, becomes a bullying tyrant and when his body is found stuffed in a recycling bin, no one is sorry - including his long-suffering family.

But Macbeth is surprised to find that many of the despicable dustman's victims refuse to talk - and when violence strikes again, the lanky lawman must quickly unearth the culprit among a litter of suspects... before the killer makes a clean getaway!

Was pleased to get back to a typical Hamish story based in his lovely village, rather than the previous one which was all about drugs and Amsterdam, and I felt just as much out of place as Hamish did and was very glad when it was over and he was back to his old self.

Back to the familiar stories of Hamish

Loved it. Was not disappointed. Poor Hemish, doesn't have a lot of luck with the ladies. Ready for next one.

Amazing story

Although my second listening I enjoyed it even more than the first time. I do wish Hamish would find out Pricilla’s history and reason for her coldness.

One off the best. I have thoroughly enjoyed this audio book and recommend it to anyone looking for a storey of well drawn characters, with comedy and pathos.

We found this book full of surprises right to the end. A great replacement to reading the actual book, which my Mother is now sadly unable to do.

Intriguing tale...
