À propos de cet audio

 It was a dream come true. Susan loved all things Scottish. So, when the opportunity presented itself, there was no question in her mind that she would go on the archaeological dig in the Highlands.

A cryptic message slipped to Susan by a sinister soap box orator was the first puzzle. Why did he choose her? Why was he chasing her? And why were she and the handsome young laird Jamie Erskine suddenly being pursued by the police who wanted to talk to them about...murder?

"Jamie stood by the desk. 'You aren't afraid of me, are you?'"

Susan considered the question. It was the first time it had occurred to her that she might have reasons to be afraid; but the accumulated facts suddenly washed over her and took her breath away.

Solid but not riveting. Lots of stereotypes. The historical vignettes are the best bits. Characters feel dated now.

It was fine

It does feel dated, but as long as you’re willing to suspend belief, it’s somewhat enjoyable escapist mystery/romantic fiction and probably spot on for the 1970s when it was written

slightly more complex Harlequin mystery romance
