Alexander McCall Smith

Love Over Scotland

challenge_name: 

This is the first book I've read by this popular author, best known, I think, for the No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency series. An Edinburgh neighbourhood of characters interact with each other, falling in love, manoeuvering for advantage, discovering small truths and unwittingly displaying their vulnerabilities.

Alexander McCall Smith begins a new series of mysteries set in his native Edinburgh, Scotland with this book. Although not terribly mysterious, it's an interesting look into Edinburgh society and a good read.

The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency by Alexander McCall Smith

A good read. The pace is unique (slower than most modern mysteries), the humor low-key. Recommended. NFM
