A change of scenery for this brand new series from the creator of the all conquering "No.1 Ladies' Detecive Agency" series. Again the protagonist is an amateur female sleuth, but Isabel Dalhousie, a philosopher by trade, treads the corrupt pavements of Edinburgh rather than the dirt tracks of Botswana. A TV series featuring Isabel is scheduled for early 2005.
Synopsis
The first in a new series of books by the author of THE NO. 1 LADIES' DETECTIVE AGENCY - marking new territory - but familiar moral ground.
