Complete with wonderful Edinburgh atmosphere and characters straight out of a Robert Burns poem, The Sunday Philosophy Club is a delightful treat from one of our most beloved authors. The Sunday Philosophy Club is a series of novels and novellas by Alexander McCall Smith.
Isabel is Editor of the Review of Applied Ethics. 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. Amateur sleuth Isabel Dalhousie is a philosopher who also uses her training to solve unusual mysteries. Isabel can't help wondering whether it was the result of mischance or mischief. In this first installment, Isabel is attending a concert in the Usher Hall when she witnesses a man fall from the upper balcony. Whether investigating a case or a problem of philosophy, the indefatigable Isabel Dalhousie, one of fiction's most richly developed amateur detectives, is always ready to pursue the answers to all of life's questions, large and small.
