Wayward daughters. Missing Husbands. Philandering partners. Curious conmen. If you've got a problem, and no one else can help you, then pay a visit to Precious Ramotswe, Botswana's only - and finest - female private detective.


Her methods may not be conventional, and her manner not exactly Miss Marple, but she's got warmth, wit and canny intuition on her side, not to mention Mr J. L. B. Matekoni, the charming proprietor of Tlokweng Road Speedy Motors.  And Precious is going to need them all as she sets out on the trail of a missing child, a case that tumbles our heroine into a hotbed of strange situations and more than a little danger...

This book is amazing.  It is funny lighthearted and is set in Gabarone, Botswana.  Mma Ramotswe is a great character and her assistant/sectretary (97%) Mma Makutsi is a very loyal woman.  Their cases are great and I definetly recommend it!
