Synopsis
Alexander McCall Smith, the author of the popular No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency series set in Botswana, has a few other series up his mischievous sleeve. THE LOST ART OF GRATITUDE is the sixth book in his series starring Scottish single mom Isabel Dalhousie. Here she runs into the shady Minty Auchterlonie--at a birthday party that she takes her 18-month old son to--and Minty, a financial banker who's never seemed quite like a straight arrow to Isabel, confides some sketchy business practices. So, great! Now Isabel must decide to do with this knowledge! Meanwhile, she's juggling her zany niece and the persistent advances of her son's father.

Industry Reviews
"He has created a world where humor is gentle, suffering is acknowledged but not foregrounded, and efforts to do good are usually rewarded. It's a wonderful place to visit, even if we don't get to live there."

"Smith's trademark humor and telling observations about people heighten the appeal." (starred review)
