The eighth book in the Ladies' No. 1 Detective Agency series.
In this new book, a series of strange deaths at the Mochudi hospital brings its director to Mma Ramotswe's door; and an outspoken lady wants to know the name of her cheating husband's girlfriend. Meanwhile, Mma Ramotswe’s husband, Mr J.L.B. Matekoni, tries his hand at detection; Mma Makutsi considers her career options in light of her impending marriage to Phuti Radiphuti; and Charlie, one of Mr JLB Matekoni's feckless apprentices, buys himself a car.
Once more, McCall Smith delivers a story that is at once intriguing and comforting in its take on human nature. The literary equivalent of a nice, hot cup of tea. |
