44 SCOTLAND STREET – Book 3
The residents and neighbors of 44 Scotland Street and the city of Edinburgh come to vivid life in these gently satirical, wonderfully perceptive serial novels, featuring six-year-old Bertie, a remarkably precocious boy—just ask his mother.
This just in from Edinburgh: the complicatedlives of the denizens of 44 Scotland Street are becoming no simpler. Domenica Macdonaldhas left for the Malacca Straits to conduct a perilous anthropological study of piratehouseholds. Angus Lordie’s dog, Cyril, has been stolen, and is facing an uncertainfuture wandering the streets. Bertie, the prodigiously talented six-year-old, isstill enduring psychotherapy, but his burden is lightened by a junior orchestra’strip to Paris, where he makes some interesting new friends. Back in Edinburgh, thereis romance for Pat with a handsome young man called Wolf, until she begins to seethe attractions of the more prosaically named Matthew.
Teeming with McCall Smith’swonderful wit and charming depictions of Edinburgh, Love Over Scotland is anotherbeautiful ode to a city and its people that continue to fascinate this astoundingauthor.
