By Alexander McCall Smith
We read this book for our book club in the Relief Society about a year ago. It is the first in a 
series of books. I think there are seven or eight in the series so far. Did you ever watch "Columbo" or "Murder, She Wrote" back in the day? This is a female detective in the country of Botswana, Africa. She solves mysteries using common sense and some old fashioned detective work. The novel is written very plain, but that style suits the main character and adds a sense of flair to the novel.

In this first novel of the series, she starts her detective agency and is right away blessed with two customers. One is a simple case of paternity and another is a more difficult case involving a missing eleven-year-old boy. This novel will appeal to any reader and makes you laugh out loud!
