No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency, by Alexander McCall Smith

What a lovely book! It follows Precious (Mma) Ramotswe as she opens the one and only detective agency in Botswana. Mma Ramotswe is a wise and clever woman who loves Africa and is very good at her job as a detective. I loved reading about her different clients, how she "cracked" the cases, the scenery of Africa, her family and past....it was all so good. Put this book on your to-read list, you won't be sorry!
