Review: The Lochside Murder: A Dorset Crime Story

The Lochside Murder: A Dorset Crime Story The Lochside Murder: A Dorset Crime Story by Rachel McLean
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Three and a half stars.

Crossover novella between Lesley Clarke's Dorset Crime and the McBride & Tanner series.

DCI Lesley Clarke and her new bride Elsa have driven north to spend their honeymoon in a cottage on the banks of Loch Lomond. But when Lesley goes for an early morning walk she discovers the body of a woman in the water tangled up in the jetty.

DI Jade Tanner is nervous, her Complex Crimes Unit has only just been formed but so far they've only had the one case, if something doesn't pick up soon they could be disbanded.

Can Lesley step back and let another officer investigate the murder? Will Elsa ever forgive Lesley for finding a dead body on their honeymoon?

A short but enjoyable read linking the two series.
