The No.1 Ladies Detective Agency

Now that she is finally and happily married to Mr J. L. B. Matekoni, Mma Ramotswe of the famous No.1 Ladies Detective Agency might have expecteed life to grow more sedate. But the many problems that lead customers to her door seem, of anything, to have multiplied.

There is a disturbing case of blackmail and theft at the government catering college, and a rumour of witchcraft on the Mokolodi Game Reserve. And all the while Precious has questions of a philosophical nature to consider, such as whether it is right to find happiness in small things like a new pair of blue shoes, a slice of cake or a red sunset over the Kalahari.
