Description
In Scotland, Where Thrift And A Nice Set Of Dentures Are Admired, Dr. Frederick Gilchrist's Cheap Rates And Penchant For Pulling Teeth Have Gained Him A Clientele. However, Wiser Highlanders--like Lochdubh Policeman Hamish Macbeth-- Steer Clear Of This Reputed Womanizer's Too-busy Hands. Only Jaw-throbbing Agony Could Drive Macbeth To Gilchrist's Surgery. The Day It Does, The Constable Stoically Prepares To Lose His Smile. But What He Finds Is More Nerve-wrenching: The Body Of Dr. Gilchrist. With More Than One Angry Husband A Possible Suspect, Macbeth May Be Biting Off More Than He Can Chew When He Starts To Extract Clues ... And Uncover A Past As Dangerous As It Is Shocking--publisher's Description. M.c. Beaton.
