Anna on palannut Lyypekistä Poriin jäätyään jo toistamiseen leskeksi ja vietettyään Hermann Weberin perheen parissa melkein kymmenen antoisaa ja vaiheikasta vuotta. Tällä välin Annan pojantyttäret ovat kasvaneet naimaikäisiksi neidoiksi, joille isä järjestää tarmokkaasti sopivia aviomiehiä. Eläväinen Marie ei kuitenkaan noin vain suostukaan "naimaan rantamakasiineja", ja niinpä Anna saa tehtäväkseen viedä uppiniskaisen kaunottaren Tukholmaan sukulaisiin tuulettumaan ja miettimään asioita.

Anna Weber joutuu siirtymään syrjään miesvainajansa perustaman kauppahuoneen johdosta, kun Joakim-poika palaa Lyypekistä Poriin ottamaan ohjat käsiinsä. Annan kontolle jää kaksostyttöjen Hannen ja Hildun naittaminen, ja Hildu saadaankin naitettua rikkaalle ja iäkkäälle leskimiehelle - kohtalo, joka olisi voinut nujertaa Hildua saamattomamman ja alistuvamman tyttölapsen. Hanne sen sijaan on onnettomasti rakastunut Anna-äitinsä kiihkeään ihailijaan, joka saa Annankin ruumiin vielä hehkumaan.

Kokematon korvessa kasvanut Johanna joutuu piiaksi rikkaan porvarin, Joachim Weberin taloon Poriin. Pian Johanna tulee isännälle raskaaksi ja saa saman tien lähteä takaisin sinne mistä on tullutkin.

Historiallisista romaaneistaan tunnetun Leila Tuuren Kauppamies-sarjassa seurataan Weberin kauppiassuvun tapahtumarikkaita vaiheita 1700- ja 1800-lukujen Suomessa.

På en scen någonstans i Sverige står en man och vrålar 'Kuken står!'. I innerfickan har han en bibel. Framför honom står ett hav av skrikande fans. Mannen är Eddie Meduza. Han var ett original som alltid gick sin egen väg. En multitalang med en oerhörd produktionstakt, som fullkomligt sprutade ur sig kassetter och sketcher. Men inom honom fanns också ett mörker som bottnade i en oerhört svår barndom och en livslång kamp mot alkoholen. 'Bara man é fantastisk' är en bok om en legend, om en älskad artist som slog publikrekord i folkparkerna och som fortfarande har hängivna fans i massor.
