But when a chanceconversation at a dinner party draws Isabel into the case of adoctor whose career has been ruined, she cannot ignore what may bea miscarriage of justice. Because for Isabel ethics are nottheoretical at all, but an everyday matter of life and death. Asshe attempts to unravel the truth behind Dr Thompson's disgrace,Isabel's patient intelligence is also required to deal withchallenges in her own life. There is her baby son Charlie; Cat'sdeli to look after, not to mention her vulnerable assistant Eddie;and a mysterious and unlikeable composer who has latched on toJamie, making Isabel fear for the future of her new family. Isabeltreads a difficult path between trust and gullibility, philanthropyand interference, while keeping in her sights the small but certaincomforts of family, philosophy and a fine Saturday morning.
