false 15901 23 In this delightful second installment in Alexander McCall Smith's best-selling new detective series, the irrepressibly curious Isabel Dalhousie, editor of the <i>Review of Applied Ethics</i>, gets caught up in an affair of the heart -- this one a transplant. When Isabel's niece, Cat, asks Isabel to run her delicatessen while she attends a wedding in Italy, Isabel meets a man with a most interesting problem. He recently had a heart transplant and is suddenly plagued with memories of events that never happened to him. The situation appeals to Isabel as a philosophical question: Is the heart truly the seat of the soul? And it piques her insatiable curiosity: Could the memories be connected with the donor's demise? Of course, Grace -- Isabel's no-nonsense housekeeper -- and Isabel's friend Jamie think it is none of Isabel's business. Meanwhile, Cat brings home an Italian lothario, who, in accordance with all that Isabel knows about Italian lotharios, shouldn't be trusted ... but, goodness, he is charming. That makes two mysteries of the heart to be solved -- just the thing for Isabel Dalhousie. 2428405 20 9 2005 Friends, Lovers, Chocolate (Sunday Philosophy Club, #2) total:1860|5:273|4:703|3:681|2:166|1:37| 1860 6589 2371 197 4 2 false false Wed Aug 01 00:00:00 -0700 2007 Sun Aug 12 09:52:39 -0700 2007 Sun Aug 12 20:15:03 -0700 2007 more...]]> 3 3 false false Thu Dec 04 11:30:05 -0800 2008 Thu Dec 04 11:32:56 -0800 2008 more...]]> 4 1 false false Sun Jun 01 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Sat May 24 07:37:05 -0700 2008 Fri Jun 20 05:41:26 -0700 2008 more...]]> 4 1 false false Thu Nov 01 00:00:00 -0700 2007 Tue Nov 20 19:19:02 -0800 2007 Sun Nov 25 06:41:54 -0800 2007
