The Careful Use of Compliments, Alexander McCall Smith

William Crozier, Edinburgh (from Salisbury Crags)

(February 14) We learn even more about modern Scottish painters in this Isabel Dalhousie and also travel out into the rural parts of Scotland and the isles a great deal (in contrast to my image choice above). This time the nominal "mystery" is a potential art forgery, and once again McCall Smith provides an interesting and unexpected solution. However, he didn’t surprise me with the final twist in the Isabel-Jamie-Cat love triangle.

Or is he just leading me on?
