En la segunda entrega de la serie Corduroy Mansions, ambientada en el elegante barrio de Pimlico en Londres, Alexander McCall Smith nos presenta a Freddie de la Hay, un terrier de Pimlico, y a un variopinto grupo de residentes en una mansión elegantemente desmoronada. Un par de operadores de la Nueva Era han decidido que la finca de Terence Moongrove es el lugar ideal para su Centro de Estudios Cosmológicos. La agente literaria Barbara Ragg ha decidido representar a un hombre que está escribiendo un libro sobre su tiempo "saliendo" con el abominable hombre de las nieves. Y nuestro pequeño, peludo e infinitamente sorprendente héroe canino, Freddie de la Hay, ha sido reclutado por el MI6 para infiltrarse en una red de espías rusos. Los otros habitantes de Corduroy Mansions también tienen sus propios problemas, pero todos ellos serán abordados con el ingenio, el encanto y la perspicacia sobre las debilidades de la condición humana que se han convertido en el sello distintivo de este narrador sin igual.
Sir Alexander "Sandy" McCall Smith is a Scottish legal scholar and author of fiction. He was born and brought up in Southern Rhodesia and was formerly Professor of Medical Law at the University of Edinburgh. He became an expert on medical law and bioethics and served on related British and international committees. He has since become known as a fiction writer, with sales in English exceeding 40 million by 2010 and translations into 46 languages. He is known as the creator of The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency series. The "McCall" derives from his great-great-grandmother Bethea McCall, who married James Smith at Glencairn, Dumfries-shire, in 1833.
