Welcome to Lochdubh on the wild West Coast of Scotland. Here PC Hamish Macbeth is the law - cool, practical - above all, a man who knows the Highland way of life.Cover of Hamish Macbeth video 2
On the streets of the village, Hamish has respect. TV John, Doc Brown, Rory the grocer, even the ne'r-do-wells Lachlan and Lachie Junior stick together. It's the "outsiders" who cause the trouble - and Hamish sorts it out in his own particular style.
Why must he convince the big boys from Inverness that the infamous Raspberry Ripple Gang has hit town? Does he have murder in mind as he stalks two escaped convicts who have brought tragedy on the village? Has Wee Jock, Hamish's beloved Westie, gone forever? And will a life-or-death experience on the mountain show him where his heart truly lies?
