Summary

When Fergus Macleod, Lochdubh's abusive, drunk dustman, is put in charge of the local recycling centre, Hamish Macbeth smells trouble. Sure enough, Fergus, imbued with his new powers, becomes a bullying tyrant. When his body is found stuffed in a recycling bin, no one is sorry--including his long-suffering family. But Macbeth is surprised to find that many of the despicable dustman's victims refuse to talk--and when violence strikes again, the lanky lawman must quickly unearth the culprit among a litter of suspects, before the killer makes a clean getaway! Sequel to "Death of an addict", followed by "Death of a celebrity". 2015
