Description
As summer returns to 44 Scotland, our favorite motley crew of residents must find new pursuits to fill their days. There is, of course, Bertie—a precocious child prodigy who, despite his most valiant efforts, finds himself roped into a number of distressing situations. At home, his mother Irene is planning lessons for him on Irish culture; at school, Bertie is forced to join a book group run by his pesky classmates; and while out with his best friend Ranald Braveheart Macpherson, the two are unexpectedly invited to a wedding.
Meanwhile, Bruce encounters some setbacks in his latest property venture when his well-intentioned attempts to move the front door of a flat end in utter disaster. At Nine Mile Burn, Matthew and the triplets try to adopt an unwillingly-vegan dog. And Sister Maria-Fiori dei Fiore Montagna discovers the missing part of the Stone of Scone in Drummond Place Gardens. Witty, wise, and surreally comedic, this newest installment in the 44 Scotland series is a reminder that when faced with the woes of the world, it is the simple pleasures in life we must hold onto.
