But then a distant cousin of Mma Ramotswe's comes to the agency with a plea for help and the ladies decide to pursue the issue together. Armed with Mma Ramotswe's circumspection and Mma Makutsi's sharp eye, they proceed with confidence and open hearts. What, after all, could be more straightforward than a family matter? Meanwhile, their colleague Charlie is behaving oddly, borrowing Mma Ramotswe's van and returning it in an unusual condition. Digging a little deeper, the explanation is both strange and extraordinary, and takes Charlie, along with Mma Ramotswe's husband, Mr J. L. B. Matekoni, on a hair-raising night-time expedition. In the end, Precious is reminded of the need to view a picture from every angle, to accept the imperfections in people and situations and then find a solution - preferably over a delicious slice of her friend Mma Potokwani's fruit cake. 650 $a No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency (Imaginary organization) $v Fiction. 650 $a Women private investigators $z Botswana $v Fiction. 650 $a Interpersonal relations $v Fiction. 650 $a Elephants $v Fiction. 650 $a No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency (Imaginary organization) 650 $a Women private investigators. 651 $a Botswana $v Fiction. 651 $a Botswana. 655 $a Large type books. 655 $a Fiction. 655 $a Detective and mystery fiction. 655 $a Humorous fiction. 941 $a 25 945 $a lpt 952 $l ETPD745 $d 20231025011241.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20231012015052.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20230203015602.0 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20220909063107.0 952 $l BVPE851 $d 20220728011949.0 952 $l YCPD572 $d 20220518024731.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20210723014042.0 952 $l SPPE104 $d 20210626010644.0 952 $l AJPE887 $d 20210622010035.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20210602011405.0 952 $l HPPD845 $d 20210525010408.0 952 $l ZYPE837 $d 20210504015944.0 952 $l KWPE446 $d 20210406010627.0 952 $l FQPC224 $d 20210227010356.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20210202010844.0 952 $l CYPF706 $d 20210202010200.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20210130011610.0 952 $l S1PD771 $d 20210126010603.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20210106010720.0 952 $l WSPF215 $d 20210105014820.0 952 $l KSPG296 $d 20201224010053.0 952 $l HRPE845 $d 20201215010730.0 952 $l JBPC145 $d 20201211140930.0 952 $l LPPC815 $d 20201210131941.0 $m f lp Smi 952 $l EZPE755 $d 20201210010355.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=5BB9D4B63AB511EBA8F3B8A535ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
