Pat is forced to deal with the reappearance of Bruce, Angus Lordie's dog, Cyril, has been taken away by the authorities, Big Lou is still looking for love and Bertie, the beleaguered Italian-speaking prodigy and saxophonist, now has a little brother, Ulysses, who he can only hope will distract his mother, Irene.

Sent to Kally93 for the 2014 Birthday group. Via Better world books. Enjoy!

Thank you lauraloo29 for this wishlist book! My parents and I have been devouring Alexander McCall Smith books. This book is in our favourite series and we just finished the one before it (Love Over Scotland), so the timing was perfect. Thank you also for the Trader Joe's Dutchess Grey tea (I drank it this morning) and the clear magnets (already holding things on the fridge). You have helped to make this RABCK fun and my birthday special!!
