Home is the Hunter! The entire story of me discovering first the Jacobites and then, as a direct result, Fritz, is told here, in excruciating detail.
ETA: The internet tells me it was published in 1990, which means it should have been out when you were reading ST books. Also, haha, I also read all the ones I could get my hands on up until I started college, and then stopped reading them, with only a few scattered exceptions.
The book had several plotlines, only one of which was Scotty, which may be why you don't remember it. That's just the one plotline my brain decided to latch onto (with results ultimately including today's salon!).
