The twenty-fourth book in the multi-million copy bestselling and
perennially adored No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency series. If you
are the founder and Managing Director of the No. 1 Ladies'
Detective Agency you may expect complete strangers to approach you
with their problems when they see you having dinner with your
husband in a peri-peri restaurant. And if you are Precious
Ramotswe, you are a kind and helpful person who will be willing to
take on a quest to find the relatives of a man who, many years ago,
left the country for the uncertainties and dangers of a distant
conflict. While that is going on, though, there may be other things
that claim your attention - such as the shocking news that a club
that calls itself the Cool Singles Evening Club is encouraging
married men to pretend to be single and meet women under false
pretences. Who can be behind such a distasteful venture? Mma
Ramotswe shows great tact in dealing with this situation, and
avoids harm to the innocent. And all the time, she and her
assistant, Grace Makutsi, are getting on with their normal lives -
which, of course, include birthdays and the buying of birthday
presents. A new dress makes a fine present, but not if, when being
tried on, it splits in a way that is thought to be irreparable. Mma
Potokwani has dealt with situations far worse that, and in dealing
with this local emergency she shows her characteristic wisdom. At
the end of the day, disaster is averted. Life in Botswana, that far
and lovely country of the title, continues smoothly, which is what
Mma Ramotswe and her friends want - and most certainly deserve.
