Review: Best of the Dumfries Detective Trilogy
Rating: 5 out of 5

This is the second book in the Dumfries Detective trilogy and the third one I've read.  I liked this one best of the three.  As with the other two ("The Case of the Pig in the Evening Suit" and "The Case of Hermit's Guest Bedroom") I really enjoy the Scottish writing and words and the imagery of RR Gall.  I read all three on my Kindle PaperWhite, and many of the Scottish words that I did not know were found in the dictionaries.The other two books had poor Jin Johnstone fiercely attacked and almost killed in a number of unusual ways, and this book has more humor and Jin is unscathed.  The plots in all three books, however, are well developed, and Jin's romances with Chiara add a little spice to the life of a life-long bachelor.  Throughout the trilogy Jin's friends remain there for him.
