Details: Amateur sleuth Isabel Dalhousie is a philosopher who uses her training to solve unusual mysteries. She edits the Review of Applied Ethics
- addressing such questions as Truth telling in sexual relationships
- & she also hosts The Sunday Philosophy Club at her house in Edinburgh. Behind the citys Georgian facades its moral compasses are spinning with greed, dishonesty & murderous intent. Instinct tells Isabel that the young man who tumbled to his death in front of her eyes at a concertl didnt fall. He was pushed. The Sunday Philosophy Club marks new territory
- but familiar moral ground
- from the author of The No. 1 Ladies; Detective Agency. With Isabel Dalhousie Alexander Mccall Smith introduces a new & pneumatic female sleuth to tackle murder, mayhem
- & the mysteries of life. As her hero WH Auden maintained, classic detective fiction stems from a desire for an uncorrupted Eden which the detective, as an agent of God, can return to us. But then Isabel, being a philosopher, has a thing or two to say about God as well. Ideal For: This would make the perfect gift for anyone who is a fan of Alexander Mc Call Smith.
