Isabel Dalhousie likes to help others and find solutions to problems. Some might say she is a busy body. Perhaps she is. In this drawn out novel we find her opinion about many matters which often do not pertain to the problems that need solving. I found this read tedious even though I liked the opinionated Isabel. The problems she encounters are these: 1) helping a young male friend cope with the loss of a girlfriend, 2) working with a man who has had a heart transplant and believes that he is seeing the image of someone who ran over the donor with his car, and 3) resolving which of the concerns she has are real and which are not. I think others must read this novel and judge for themselves whether or not they like it. I found it just ok.
