Murder at a Scottish Castle by Traci Hall

This was by far my favourite of the series. I liked the twist in the plot, the personal twists as well as the character growth in everyone.



I would definitely not recommend starting with this book because the personal connections and the emotional investment in Paislee’s life builds slowly over time. Unlike some other books in this genre, time is moving faster in this with a couple of years down since the first book. Other things have resolved themselves since we first met Paislee’s grandfather and DI Zeffer. 



In this story, personally there are some hits and chances for change our leading lady might not be ready to make. The mystery had an interesting turn of events that I almost laughed at the ending ( although it was actually quite serious).



I am most pleased that a fifth book in a series would work this well for me. The knitting references don’t hurt its staying power with me as well.



I received an ARC thanks to Netgalley and the publishers but the review is entirely based on my own reading experience of this and the previous books .
