A Heart in the Right Place
All Nick wants to do is take his dying father for a perfect father-son weekend in the Scottish Highlands. It’s not much to ask, is it? A log cabin, a roaring fire, a bottle of fine whisky and two days to paper over the cracks in their relationship.
However, Nick didn’t plan on making the trip with a dead neighbour in the back of his car. Or the neighbour’s dog. He really didn’t plan on being pursued by a psychotic female assassin intent on collecting body parts. And he really, really didn’t plan on encountering a platoon of heavily armed mercenaries, or some very hungry boars, or a werewolf.
A Heart in the Right Place – a horror comedy about setting out with the very best intentions and then messing everything up.

My Thoughts and Review:

My first read by Heide and Iain and what a totally off the wall read this was.

Comedic, gruesome and scary. All rolled into one entertaining package.

Nick has arranged a weekend away with his terminally ill father. Everything is in place, well except for one thing, the delivery of a bottle of Talisker malt whisky. Nothing can go wrong can it?  Well for one thing the malt has been delivered to his neighbour!  A neighbour that Nick, despite numerous attempts cannot seem to get hold of. So he decides to do a little breaking and entering. That is his first mistake, but after all his heart is in the right place. Is it not?

This was not for me a laugh out loud book, more a small chuckle and smile tale. But no less funny for all that. It was a book I could see being turned into a film. It reminded me of Shawn of the Dead. But that was about zombies. This tale has a female assassin, mercenaries, hungry boars and oh werewolves!!

The writing was superb and the dialogue crisp and entertaining. All the characters are well drawn and have their place in the story. All appealed to me for various reasons,           My favourite character was Tony, Nick’s father. He is the voice of common sense and reality amidst the mayhem!

Thanks Heide and Iain for this hilarious romp of a book. 5 stars from me.
