The Uncommon Appeal Of
Clouds - (Isabel
Dalhousie Novels)
£3.99
As a mother, wife, employer & editor of the Review of Applied Ethics, Isabel Dalhousie is aware that to be human is to be responsible. So when a neighbour brings her a new & potentially dangerous puzzle to solve, once again Isabel feels she has no option but to shoulder the burden. A masterpiece painting has been stolen from Duncan Munrowe, old-fashioned philanthropist, father to two discontented children, & a very wealthy man.

Fortunately for those around her, Isabel Dalhousie is in possession of all three.

Product Description

Approaching 80, frail & alone, a remarkable man makes the journey from his sheltered home in England to Berlin to meet his granddaughter.

He has six days left to live & must relate his life story before he dies...

His life has been rich & full. He has witnessed firsthand the rise of the Nazis, experienced heartrending family tragedy, fought in the German army, been interred in a POW camp in Scotland & faced violent persecution in peacetime Britain. But he has also touched many lives, fallen deeply in love, raised a family & survived triumphantly at the limits of human endurance.

He carries within him an astonishing family secret that he must share before he dies... a story that will mean someone else’s salvation.
