About A Dagger at the Wild Haggis Bookshop: A totally unputdownable Scottish cozy mystery novel

Murder steals the show in this gripping Highland mystery – perfect for fans of cosy crime with real drama! When Beth Cunningham and the Wild Haggis Bookshop gang sign up to help with Oban’s Christmas production, she expects nothing more dramatic than backstage nerves and a few dodgy dance numbers. But the town’s crumbling old theatre – complete with gargoyles, a tragic history and rumours of a vengeful ghost – has darker things in store.

During the dress rehearsal, a prop knife becomes horribly real, and a woman is stabbed in full view of the cast and crew. As Detective Sergeant Logan Hunter takes the case, Beth can’t resist getting involved – even as a face from his past threatens to unravel the future she’s slowly letting herself imagine with him. Behind the velvet curtains, Beth uncovers a tangle of old grudges, simmering jealousy and a leading lady who will do anything to stay centre stage.

As Oban twinkles with Christmas lights and the bookshop fills with carols and the smell of warm spiced cake, Beth must work out who in the cast is hiding a motive worth killing for – before the curtain falls on someone else…A wonderfully festive whodunnit that will keep you guessing until the final act – perfect for curling up with by the fire this Christmas.
