Almost there, dear, the older woman murmured to Paislee before turning to check on the sixty students aboard for the Fordythe Primary class field trip. Martin, Brody’s P6 teacher, peered over her tortoiseshell glasses in reproof at the oblivious driver. Paislee Shaw gritted her teeth as the school bus jounced over a crack in the paved road, and wished for a wee bit more padding to protect her bum from the hard plastic seat. With suspects sprouting up like weeds, Paislee may need to hedge her bets until she can determine who is trying to lead her down the garden path. Gruff DI Mack Zeffer is on the case, but Paislee also has a stake in flushing out the shooter. It’s not her missing landlord, but Lady Leery’s nephew, Charles Thomson. Unfortunately, the only one killed is a man Paislee sees falling out of the hedges after being shot. So Paislee volunteers to chaperone in the hopes of tracking down Shawn and killing two birds with one stone. Shawn is heir to the Leery Estate, which Brody’s class will be visiting on a field trip. Paislee’s custom sweater and yarn business, Cashmere Crush, is the sole support for not only the single mum and her ten-year-old son Brody, but also her eccentric Gramps and Wallace, their black Scottish terrier.So when her landlord, Shawn Marcus, serves her an eviction notice and then pulls a disappearing act, she’ll go to any lengths to find the man and reason with him. In the charming Scottish shire of Nairn, sweater shop owner Paislee Shaw must root out a garden variety killer.
