New York Times best-selling author Alexander McCall Smith has become a household name through his No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency series. Now he continues his equally charming Isabel Dalhousie series with the third mystery starring the highly ethical, plucky protagonist.

Isabel's life is thrown for a few loops when her cousin Mimi arrives from Dallas with her husband Joe. Through Mimi and Joe, Isabel meets Texas hotshot Tom Bruce, who is about to marry someone Isabel suspects of gold-digging. Further complicating matters, Tom seems to have an unusual level of interest in Isabel. Meanwhile, Isabel has her own feelings to deal with, not to mention those of her beloved niece Cat, whose romantic interest may not be up to snuff.

It would all be quite a lot for one person to contend with if that person wasn't Isabel, who is always ready to apply her well-defended sense of ethics to any situation.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Charmingly told...Its graceful prose shines, and Isabel's interior monologues - meditations on a variety of moral questions - are bemused, intelligent, and entertaining." (The Seattle Times)
"McCall Smith's assessments of fellow humans are piercing and profound. [His] depictions of Edinburgh are vivid and seamless...His fans are sure to embrace these moral peregrinations among the plaid." (San Francisco Chronicle)

I have loved each of the books in this series about Isabel Dalhousie. And, this one was no different, except for one caveat...there were no pauses between the last sentence of each chapter and the subsequent announcement of the next chapter. No pause whatsoever. It gave a feeling of one long run on sentence, from "Chapter One" to "The End". Distracting. It's wasn't the narrator's fault. It was the director's fault, I suppose. However, I am buying the next installment as soon as this review is complete. Alexander McCall Smith never disappoints.

Wait for it...

The characters are filled with a dynamic simplicity that makes the reader(listener) relate to their complex situations. The thought process and moral contemplation of Isabel is simply brilliant! Alexander Smith has given her a dialogue full of charm and wit that embraces the true nature only a Scot could possess. Davina Porter...AMAZING...as always! I cannot wait to dive into book 4.

I am utterly in love!

This version skipped parts. Disappointing. The story is great, as usual, but this recording lacks.

l thoroughly enjoyed the story, but it was disconcerting when a new chapter began so abruptly. I feel a few seconds between the end of one chapter and the beginning of another would have made listening much more enjoyable.

May December Romance - why not?

Great recording and great story! Highly recommend if you want to escape into Scotland fiction.

Great story

This is the second Alexander McCall Smith series I am hooked on now. What started as a gamble with the first dectective agency has now grown into a full blown following!
I have enjoyed this title in the series best so far with Isabell in and out of scrapes throughout the story - the shocking revelation at the end of the book did it for me!

Another winner

A nice quiet story for a nice lovely day. This is one of the series that I find myself returning to again and again

Lovely story, lovely narrator

I believe that Davina could read the encyclopedia and keep me interested. And Alexander McCall Smith can be relied upon to spin a heartwarming yet reasonably realistic yarn. Very pleasant all around.

I love Davina Porter

The characters are well thought out, relatable, and real. The plot is charming and compelling. The ending, however, is quite trite—a cop out.

Charming, but the ending is trite

It was great to have another book with my new favorite character, Isabel. The story went in a direction I wasn’t expecting, and ended with a surprise I wasn’t expecting, although others might have. Looking forward to starting the next book.

A surprising turn of events
