Sunshine on Scotland Street

Praise

“McCall Smith gives us each of his characters’ points of view, moving deftly from one to the other. . . . Advancing the action (this latest has a wedding, a doppelgänger, and the continuing adventures of Matthew and Elspeth and the triplet infants) as we learn exactly what characters are thinking of each other and themselves. Humor and insight abound.” —Booklist (starred review)

“A crew that’s endlessly open to adventures while remaining immitigably themselves.” —Kirkus Reviews
