Summary
In the latest book in the widely beloved No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency series, Precious Ramotswe takes on a case for a childhood acquaintance, but her inquiries will require an even more delicate touch than usual.
Mma Ramotswe reconnects with an old friend who has been having problems with her daughter. Though Precious feels compelled to lend a hand, she discovers that getting involved in family affairs is always a delicate proposition.
Mr. J. L. B. Matekoni finds himself embroiled in familial drama as well when one of his clients asks for help evicting an unwanted houseguest who turns out to be the man's own brother. Elsewhere, Charlie and Fanwell are also involved in tricky matters of the heart, as Queenie-Queenie, Charlie's girlfriend, seems to have transferred her affections to Fanwell. It's up to Mma Makutsi to set things right, but she may be be too distracted by her nemesis Violet Sephotho, who has somehow been appointed to the board of a charity. What is Violet up to now?
As all of these mysteries are unravelled, Mma Ramotswe and the entire No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency will be reminded of the value of tried-and-true wisdom - never judge a book by its cover.

Welcome back old friends

Lovely, as ever.
Storyline somehow not as interesting as usual - but lovely to hear the development of Charlie’s character and I took real pleasure in his happy ending. Adjoa Andoh brought all the characters to life brilliantly as always. I would willingly listen to anything she narrates.

Enjoyable
I enjoy the calm and placid way these stories plod along. The characters are engaging and I would love to share a cup of tea with Mma Ramotswe.

Wrong information in Audible description of plot
Some of the info on Audio about the plot is incorrect (at the time of listening). That spoilt my experience because I was waiting for a couple of things to happen which never did. I even wondered if I'd somehow got an abridged version, but no.
Apart from that it was an uplifting and engaging read ike all the others in this lovely series and Adjoa Andoh's narration was wonderful.

The story continues.....
Full of observations on the diverse behaviour of human beings. I
found it amusing in places and laughed out loud.
