ISABEL DALHOUSIE - Book 1  Nothing captures the charm of Edinburgh like the bestselling Isabel Dalhousie series of novels featuring the insatiably curious philosopher and woman detective.  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.In this first installment,  Isabel is attending a concert in the Usher Hall when she witnesses a man fall from  the upper balcony.  Isabel can’t help wondering whether it was the result of mischance  or mischief.  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.  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.
