That is a remark made by Isabel Dalhousie to Jamie, the bassoonist who is her handsome younger husband. Isabel's own life, of course, points to the truth of this observation: she seems to attract philosophical problems in much the same way as a magnet attracts iron filings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn this latest movement in the symphony of her life, Isabel is faced with novel challenges, each of which tests her resolution to do the right thing. Dawn, a nurse in an infectious diseases ward, is let down by her lover and needs a place to live. Not surprisingly, Isabel offers her a roof over her head. What do you do, though if your house-guest locks herself away and avoids all contact?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAnd then there is the pompous and slippery Professor Robert Lettuce. He is planning a prestigious conference, and involves Isabel in it. But look at the budget: why is there such a large payment for Lettuce himself and for a young female assistant? Isabel is suspicious.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOther intriguing problems abound, including Isabel's involvement in a book group threatened by discord and bickering. Isabel remains calm. Of course she does. She knows the power of love, reason, and a clear head to resolve all of these issues, and more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePRAISE FOR THE ISABEL DALHOUSIE NOVELS:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e'Isabel Dalhousie's charm is undeniable' Sunday Times\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e'The No. 2 Lady Detective . . . anyone who loves Precious cannot fail to be charmed' Mail on Sunday\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e'Delightful . . .
