Book Synopsis

Just when Hamish most needs him - the dentist turns up dead...

In Scotland, where thrift and a ''nice set of dentures'' are generally admired, dental surgeon Dr Frederick Gilchrist''s cheap rates and penchant for pulling teeth have gained him a clientele. However, wiser Highlanders (like Hamish Macbeth) opt to steer clear of this reputed womanizer''s all-too-busy hands. Only jaw-throbbing agony drives Hamish to Gilchrist''s surgery, but what he finds is the dentist''s dead body - putting several angry husbands in the frame for murder...
