44 SCOTLAND STREET - Book 7

The residents and neighbors of 44 Scotland Street and the city of Edinburgh come to vivid life in these gently satirical, wonderfully perceptive serial novels, featuring six-year-old Bertie, a remarkably precocious boyâ€”just ask his mother.Â Â

If you havenâ€™t met the residents of 44 Scotland Street yet, there is no better time, since everyone seems to beÂ in theÂ midst of new beginnings.
Â
New parents Matthew and Elspeth must muddle through the difficulties of raisingÂ theirÂ tripletsÂ Rognvald, Tobermory and Fegusâ€”there's normal sleep deprivation, and then there's trying to tell the children apart from one another. Angus and Domenica are newly engaged, and now they must negotiate the complex merger of two households. Domenica is also forced to deal with the return of an old flame, while Big Lou has begun the search for a new one, boldly exploring the new world of online datingÂ and coming up with an ElvisÂ impersonatorÂ on the first try. And in Bertieâ€™s family, there's a shift in power as his father Stuart starts to stand up to overbearing mother, Ireneâ€”and then thereâ€™s Bertie,Â whoÂ has been thinking that he might want to start over with a new family andÂ soÂ puts himself up for adoption on eBay.Â Â With his signature charm and gentle wit Alexander McCall SmithÂ vividly portrays the lives of Edinburghâ€™s mostÂ unique andÂ beloved characters.
