Death of an Artist

Finola and Anne are delighted: their detective agency is doing well and becoming more and more established in Edinburgh. In no time at all, they get their next case, and it's one that affects them personally: Anne's good friend Gordon has taken his own life, leaving her deeply shocked. She cannot and will not believe that the successful, charismatic artist committed suicide. And that's not all - soon her suspicions fall on Gordon's circle of friends. Then another artist is found dead - is Anne in danger too?

About the series:

Young Scot Finola MacTavish has moved from the picturesque Isle of Skye to Edinburgh to work as a private detective in Anne Scott's agency. Along with computer whiz Lachie, the two lady detectives solve a series of baffling cases. Finola soon realises that she has a knack for investigation and shadowing people - preferably in disguise. What's more, she always has her granny's herbal medicine to hand, and the drops in question are much more than just a headache remedy . . .
