Who allowed Monday again?

Monday

 

 Yesterday, I read AN AMERICAN IN SCOTLAND by Lucy Connelly. 1st of new series.

 

 

Sea Isle , Scotland, was supposed to be the fresh start Dr. Emilia McRoy dreamed of. Far from the busy emergency room across the Atlantic in Seattle, she hoped to settle down and begin this new chapter as a small-town doctor to the quirky residents who immediately welcomed her. When she stumbles across a dead body, she starts to think that she may not be as Scot free of the drama and intrigue as she initially thought. Emilia soon learns she has bigger issues at hand. It starts with realizing she’ll work closely with the less than helpful local constable, Laird Ewan Campbell. Her luck continues when she discovers that part of her new responsibilities includes being the coroner for the very body she found. Finally, when the body goes missing before she can even begin the autopsy, Emilia must convince the townspeople that a crime did, in fact, occur. The deeper she digs into the picturesque town, the more suspicious she becomes.

Published 2023; 295 pages. 5 stars. I'm looking forward to the next one ... in January, dang it.

Currently reading CAJOLE by Jenny Schwartz. 4th of 5 in Adventures of a Xeno-Archeologist.

Liam and Nora gather new allies and establish a base for themselves in Bangalore. Shadowy enemies lurk about and for every shadow faced more seem to appear.
