From New York Times best-selling author Alexander McCall Smith, creator of the sensationally popular No. 1 Ladies’ Detective Agency series, comes the second mystery starring the ever-ethical and undeniably charming Isabel Dalhousie. Working at her niece’s deli, Isabel notices a customer named Ian, who is avoiding chocolate—doctors says it’s bad for the new heart he recently received. Ian is haunted by memories he can’t place. Could his new heart be the cause?
