The latest instalment from the beloved THE NO. 1 LADIES’ DETECTIVE AGENCY series

Mma Ramotswe knows she is very lucky indeed. She has a loving family, good friends and a thriving business doing what she enjoys most: helping people. But the latest mystery she is called upon to solve is distinctly trickier than it initially appears, and, of course, there’s plenty to handle in her personal life between Charlie and his new bride and Mma Makutsi and her talking shoes.

In the end, Mma Ramotswe’s patience and common-sense will win out, and, without a doubt, all will be the better for it.

Reviews

Equally as brilliant as the previous editions. . . . McCall Smith writes with deceptive simplicity, yet his work is laced with worthy insight, and dry, yet charming, humour.
Scottish Field
The hypnotic ease of McCall Smith's style makes everything clear almost instantly
Daily Telegraph
McCall Smith's familiar tone of wry amusement permeates the narrative, as does the detective's wisdom . . . hugely enjoyable
Sunday Times
Mma Ramotswe is a glorious creation, a character likely to prove every bit as enduring as Miss Marple or Hercule Poirot
Mail on Sunday
Blake may have been able to see the world in a grain of sand, but McCall Smith can encapsulate the human condition in a plate of stewed pumpkin. His talent is to see the god in small things
Sunday Times Scotland
An ultra-smooth ride . . . almost more blissful than even McCall Smith's millions of regular devotees could pray for or hope
Scotsman
Everything about [McCall Smith] is appealing. He's just full of delight - it just bubbles out of him
Sunday Herald
