The Revolving Door of Life by Alexander McCall Smith
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Another great unfolding adventure revolving around that famous Edinburgh address--44 Scotland Street. Where the now-7 year old Bertie lives--at this time so very much enjoying the absence of his controlling mother (Irene) who has ended involuntarily sequestered in an Arab sheikh's harem! Bertie's grandmother--Bertie's father's mother, Nicola--comes to the rescue from Portugal and gives Bertie untold freedoms & gifts, including a new traditional Scottish kilt. Very enjoyable--love McCall Smiths' writing and development of these characters from the neighborhood who have become so familiar. Read on my iPhone; borrowed from the library.
