Book Notices | The Right Attitude to Rain by Alexander McCall Smith

Alexander McCall Smith, The Right Attitude to Rain (Book 3)

  Amazon  

Things are heating up in Edinburgh! (And in Dallas, for that matter.) And love is in the air, at least for a couple of happy couples. This time out, Isabel is hosting her cousin Mimi (and Mimi's husband Joe) from Dallas, and they all vacation together at a house rented by another pair of Americans. Tom and Angie are an enigmatic engaged couple whose relationship may or may not be what it seems. This installment in McCall Smith's series is more about personalities than problem-solving, but Tom and Angie do pose a something of a mystery and raise a moral problem or two for Isabel. The book really moves Isabel's personal story forward as well, ending as it does with a revelation that I never guessed was coming.
