THE NO. 1 LADIES? DETECTIVE AGENCY - Book 6

Fans around the world adore the bestselling No. 1 Ladies? Detective Agency series, the basis of the HBO TV show, and its proprietor Precious Ramotswe, Botswana?s premier lady detective.  In this charming series, Mma  Ramotswe navigates her cases and her personal life with wisdom, and good humor?not to mention help from her loyal assistant, Grace Makutsi, and the occasional cup of tea.

Precious is busier than usual at the detective agency when she discovers an intruder in her house on Zebra Drive?and perhaps even more baffling--a pumpkin on her porch. Her associate, Mma Makutsi, also has a full plate. She's taken up dance lessons, only to be partnered with a man with two left feet. And at Tlokweng Road Speedy Motors, where Mr J. L. B. Matekoni is already overburdened with work, one of his apprentices has run off with a wealthy older woman. But what finally rattles Mma Ramotswe?s normally unshakable composure is a visitor who forces her to confront a difficult secret from her past.
