Smith, Alexande McCall Abacus FF Paperback 2024
An escape from life's woes as well as a suggestion for how to make the whole deal more palatable – fragility, fruit cake, and all
Boston Globe
One of the most reliably entertaining cosy series running, soothingly returning readers to the tiny Botswana office of Mma Precious Ramotswe… a comic novel, enlivened by Precious' reflections, Grace's jockeying for status and part-time mechanic and apprentice detective Charlie's struggles to overcome his unreliability. A total delight
Booklist, Starred Review
The most fabulous celebration of kindness and wisdom awaits… At once gentle and affectionate while also beautifully witty and thought-provoking
