Book Description:
The eighth installment in the universally beloved, internationally bestselling series.Members who requested this book also requested:
In the life of Mma Ramotswe – a woman duly proud of her fine traditional build – there is rarely a dull moment, and in her newest round of adventures, challenges and intrigues, the same certainly holds true. But one thing above all else is keeping her occupied – her estimable husband, Mr. J.L.B. Matekoni. He has been hinting for some time now that he intends to do something special for their adopted daughter, Motholeli, and it seems that the time for this good deed has come. Of course, good deed or not, his plan is bound to hit some snags. And that’s when he will undoubtedly consider himself doubly – perhaps even triply – lucky to be married to the ever-resourceful, ever-understanding Precious Ramotswe.

If you haven't read the rest of the series, don't start here. Get on the waiting list for the No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency and start there. Do it now!
If you have read the others, well, you don't need anyone to tell you that you will love the book. Mma Ramotswe, Mr. J.L.B. Matekoni, Mma Makustsi, Charlie the apprentice, and others are again up to their old ways, to the delight of readers around the world.
When this one came in, we pulled it from the mailbox at about 6 p.m. My wife finished it before we went to sleep that night. It's taking me a bit longer... but not much.

This is 8th in the series of the No.1 Ladies Detective Agency. I did not like it as well as its predecessors...maybe because there was less of Mma Ramotswe and more of Mma Makutsi and Mr. J.L.B. Matekoni.I doubt that this will deter a single reader because everyone wants to continue the series! I know I did.

My husband and I both read this latest installment and we really enjoyed this one. It has more than one subplot, and held our attention. As always, the writing is wonderful. This series is like comfort food – always satisfying even if it doesn’t have the most substance. No profanity, no real violence—just great entertainment. If you've never read this series, start with the first one, and just know that each one gets better and better!

I love this whole series and this one is just as good as the rest. Mr. J.L.B. Matekoni decides that he would like to handle a case for Mma Ramotswe. Mma Ramotswe has reservations about this but decides to let him go ahead. Also, Mma Ramotswe and Mma Makutsi have a falling out and Mma Makutsi decides to leave the agency. Reading a book from this series is like having a chat with an old friend.
