    Inversgail, a quaint town on the Scottish Highlands, welcomes back native daughter and renowned environmental writer Daphne Wood as their author in residence. Eccentric and reclusive, Daphne has lived in a self-built cabin in the Canadian wilderness for thirty years, accompanied only by her dog. Her return stirs excitement for a gala book signing, but her unconventional ways create chaos at the school, library, and bookshop even before her arrival. On a misty night, tragedy strikes when an American man is found dead outside a local pub. Familiar with the community's history of solving crimes, Daphne urges Janet Marsh and her partners at Yon Bonnie Books to help uncover the truth. Determined to prove her worth, she begins her own investigation, but her meddling leads to her own demise when she is poisoned by scones from the tearoom. Now, Janet and her partners must solve both murders to protect their business's reputation, all while navigating the chaos caused by Daphne's dog, who may hold the key to unraveling the mystery if only they can quiet its howling.

  3. Inversgail. When Janet Marsh discovers the body of Dr. Malcolm Murray, it appears to have been an accident. A few days later a box of vintage first editions is left on the doorstep of Yon Bonnie Books with a note: "Please look after these books. Thank you." What exactly does "look after" mean? Are Janet and the crew free to sell them? And what are the odd notes penciled in the margins? They discover the books might have belonged to Malcolm Murray or his reclusive brother, Gerald. At Malcolm's house they find evidence of a burglary; at Gerald's house they find the door ajar - and Gerald stabbed with a regimental dagger. -- adapted from jacket
