Alexander McCall Smith's No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency series has become a worldwide phenomenon thanks to the appeal of endearing protagonist Precious Ramotswe and the author's charmingly quirky
prose. In this 13th installment, Mma Ramotswe's attention is focused on a pesky disciplinary problem at her adopted daughter's school-while Grace Makutsi adjusts to wedded bliss and the famed Clovis
Andersen arrives in Botswana looking for more than bush tea.
Editorial Reviews
Editorial Reviews
“Part of the brilliance of this series is that what may seem like tiny cases expand into considerations of virtue, love, ambition, greed, and evil…McCall Smith’s novels are both very meditative and laugh-out-loud funny. If you’ve never read a No. 1 Ladies’, now’s the time.”
—Booklist (starred review)
“Smith wisely doesn’t tamper with his winning recipe for literary comfort food in his thirteenth excursion to Gaborone, Botswana, in the company of bighearted PI Precious Ramotswe…As always, the detection is secondary to Smith’s continuing exploration of the rhythms and social dynamics of smalltown African life.”
—Publishers Weekly
