Book excerpt: Miss Julia's regular doctor has gone on vacation, leaving a replacement in his stead. Never one to miss an opportunity to entertain-- or size up-- a newcomer, Miss Julia invites Dr. Don Crawford and his painfully shy wife, Lauren, to dinner. While Miss Julia and Sam both note Lauren's obvious lack of social skills, it's her friends Hazel Marie and Binkie that pick up on some of Dr. Crawford's less palatable qualities. Meanwhile, Lloyd has gotten his first car, and LuAnne, fresh off her divorce, has started a job at the local funeral home and is in urgent need of an occupation-appropriate makeover. -- adapted from jacket
