Bestselling author Alexander McCall Smith brings all the warmth of his
extraordinary NO. 1 LADIES' DETECTIVE AGENCY books and the Sunday
Philosophy Club series to this witty novel chronicling the lives of the
residents of 44 Scotland Street in Edinburgh. Originally serialized in
The Scotsman , 44 SCOTLAND STREET is already an international
sensation. When twenty-year-old Pat rents a room from handsome and
cocky Bruce, she inherits some delightfully colourful neighbours:
Domenica, an insightful and eccentric widow; Bertie, a five-year-old
who's mastered both saxophone and Italian; and Irene, his overbearing
mother. Pat's new job at a gallery seems easy enough. Her boss spends
most of his time drinking coffee in a local cafe and discussing matters
great and small, and Pat's duties are light. That is until she realizes
that one of their paintings may be an undiscovered work of a renowned
Scottish artist and she discovers that one of their customers may be in
on the secret. Add to this a fancy ball, love triangles and an
encounter with a famous crime writer, and you have Alexander McCall
Smith's entertaining and witty portrait of Edinburgh society.

Introducing Isabel Dalhousie the heroine of the latest bestselling series from the author of the NO. 1 LADIES' DETECTIVE AGENCY . Isabel, the editor of the Review of Applied Ethics and an occasional detective, has been accused of getting involved in problems that are, quite frankly, none of her business. In this first installment, Isabel is attending a concert in the Usher Hall when she witnesses a man fall from the upper balcony. Isabel can't help wondering whether it was the result of mischance or mischief. Against the best advice of her no-nonsense housekeeper Grace, her bassoon playing friend Jamie, and even her romantically challenged niece Cat, she is morally bound to solve this case.
