Audio ( ) I think I felt in the previous installment of this series that the relationship between Precious and Grace was shifting, or on the verge of coming to a head. But nothing happened then. And for most of this book I felt the same way-- that Mma Ramotswe and Mma Makutsi have such different ways of approaching life that their partnership must surely end. But, without spoiling anything, I will say that Precious has surprised me again, and in the process has proven herself to be a person of most generous spirit. Of course I knew that already and I find it frustrating at times, but I think that is more of a reflection on me than on her. These novels calm my soul, more and more as the story develops. Book number 17 in the No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency series. In this one, Fanwell accidentally acquires a dog, Mr. Polopetsi gets involved in a shady business scheme, and the ladies help a Canadian woman who spent her childhood in Botswana and has returned looking for people she once knew and places she half-remembers. As usual, this is just pure, warm, comfort reading, perfect for when you're having a stressful day. It is also one of the installments where I'm genuinely curious to see how the investigation comes out, although, of course, that's not really about the plot, any more than anything else in this series is. Seventeen books in, and I'm still amazed that I've never gotten tired of these, but I'm certainly not complaining! keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

"The delightful seventeenth installment of the ever-popular, perennially best-selling No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency series Precious Ramotswe, Botswana's premier lady detective, is a little short on help. The co-director of the agency, Grace Makutsi, is busy with her own case, her client none other than their erstwhile assistant, Mr. Polopetsi, who has unwittingly involved himself in a pyramid scheme. The agency's other assistant, Charlie, may also need more help than he can offer, as he is newly embroiled in a romance with a glamorous woman about whom the others have their doubts. So when a young Canadian woman approaches Mma Ramotswe with a complex case, it's up to her alone to solve it--with her signature intuition and insight, of course. The young woman spent part of her childhood in Botswana and needs help finding a long-lost acquaintance. But much time has passed, and her memory yields few clues. The difficult search--and the unexpected results--will remind them all that sometimes it's those we think we know best who most surprise us"-- Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
