The right attitude towards rainy weather

Izabellai sagādā arī brāļameitas Ketas attiecības ar puisi, kurš, pēc Izabellas domām, ir nelabojams memmesdēliņš. Protams, Greisa un Džeimijs iesaka Izabellai nekur neiejaukties, taču uz spēles ir svarīgi filozofiski jautājumi, precīzāk, jautājums par to, kad sacīt patiesību un kad turēt muti, un Izabellai Delhauzijai, “Praktiskās Ētikas Apskata” redaktorei, filozofiski jautājumi ir dienišķā maize. Lai vai kā, viņa nešaubās, ka ir ētiski šad un tad paspiegot – it sevišķi tad, ja pētāmās problēmas ir saistītas ar sirdslietām.

This thrilling novel is the third in a series of bestsellers featuring the main characters Isabella Dalhousie and her estate manager, the practical and wise Grace. Friends of Isabella arrive in Edinburgh from Dallas, introducing her to Texas millionaire Tom Bruce – and soon perplexing events begin to unfold. Tom's fiancée's behavior makes Isabella think that this young lady's love is rooted in Tom's money. But where does Tom's unexpected interest in Isabella herself stem from? Isabella is also concerned about her niece Cat's relationship with a boy who, in Isabella's opinion, is an incorrigible mama's boy. Of course, Grace and Jamie advise Isabella not to interfere, but important philosophical questions are at stake, specifically the question of when to tell the truth and when to keep silent, and for Isabella Dalhousie, editor of the "Review of Practical Ethics," philosophical questions are her daily bread. Nevertheless, she has no doubt that it is ethical to spy occasionally – especially when the issues under investigation are related to matters of the heart.
