Book 50 - 52 Books in 52 Weeks

The Limpopo Academy of Private Detection
Alexander McCall Smith
2012


Could anything be more delightful than a new Alexander McCall Smith?  Oh, my! And this time, who should appear, but Clovis Andersen himself?!  The author of that great book, "The Principles of Private Detection" is here in person!

"Precious Ramotswe is haunted by a repeated dream of a tall stranger who waits for her beneath an acacia tree.  Odd as this is, she's too busy to worry about it.  The best apprentice at Tlokweng Road Speedy Motors is in trouble with the law and stuck with the worst lawyer in Gaborone.  Grace Makutsi and Phuti Radiphuti are building the house of their dreams, but their builder is not on the up and up.  Most shockingly, Mma Potokwane, defender of Botswana's downtrodden, has been dismissed from her post as matron at the orphan farm.  Can the No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency help restore the beloved matron to her rightful position?"
