The delectable new installment in the bestselling and already
beloved adventures of Isabel Dalhousie and her no-nonsense
housekeeper, Grace. When friends from Dallas arrive in Edinburgh
and introduce Isabel to Tom Bruce – a bigwig at home in Texas –
several confounding situations unfurl at once. Tom’s young
fiancee’s roving eye leads Isabel to believe that money may be the
root of her love for Tom. But what, Isabel wonders, is the root of
the interest Tom begins to show for Isabel herself? And she can’t
forget about her niece, Cat, who’s busy falling for a man whom
Isabel suspects of being an incorrigible mama’s boy. Of course
Grace and Isabel’s friend Jamie counsel Isabel to stay out of all
of it, but there are irresistible philosophical issues at stake –
when to tell the truth and when to keep one’s mouth shut, to be
precise – and philosophical issues are meat and drink to Isabel
Dalhousie, editor of the Review of Applied Ethics. In any case,
she’s certain of the ethical basis for a little sleuthing now and
again – especially when the problems involve matters of the
heart.
