THE EIGHTH BOOK IN THE BELOVED NO. 1 LADIES' DETECTIVE AGENCY SERIES

The one where Mma Ramotswe's husband plays detective . . .

At the No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency, there are many new cases for Precious Ramotswe to attend to, including the grave matter of three suspicious deaths at the hospital.
