Feathers fly and cultures clash as the Jolly Grant House prepares to welcome a special delivery from Scotland
In the third Jana Bibi novel, Betsy Woodman takes us back to the Jolly Grant house for the arrival of Jana’s son, Jack, from Scotland, and his Hungarian bride-to-be, Katarina. The whole household is excited to welcome their international visitors—and Jana is determined to repair the house to Jack’s high standards and those of her grandfather, from whom she inherited the eccentric building. But this puts a strain on Jana, both emotionally and financially, and she risks her most prized and valuable possession—the (surprisingly real!) emeralds she got from the Treasure Emporium—to help her through it.
Jana found a home and family in Jana Bibi’s Excellent Fortunes and foiled an international bird-smuggling ring in Love Potion Number 10. In Emeralds Included, she faces her biggest challenges yet. Family life, love life, plumbing repairs–will anything go well?
