Starred Review<\/p>\n
I love the No. 1 Ladies’ Detective Agency!\u00a0 This is now the ninth book in the series.\u00a0 I do recommend starting at the beginning.\u00a0 You will grow to know and love these characters, adding to the charm of the books.\u00a0 You will understand exactly why Mma Makutsi’s uncle asks a bride price of precisely 97 cows.<\/p>\n
I dearly wish I could sit down to a cup of red bush tea with Precious Ramotswe.\u00a0 (I would never admit that I like black tea better!)\u00a0 She is a woman of wisdom, peace, and compassion.<\/p>\n
Reading this book is the next best thing.<\/p>\n
“Mma Ramotswe was right: evil repaid with retribution, with punishment, had achieved half its goal; evil repaid with kindness was shown to be what it really was, a small, petty thing, not something frightening at all, but something pitiable, a paltry affair.”<\/p>\n
