The Joy and Light Bus Company

"Mma Ramotswe is a glorious creation" Mail on Sunday

Mma Ramotswe knows she is very lucky indeed. She has a loving family, good friends and a thriving business doing what she enjoys most: helping people. But the latest mystery she is called upon to solve is distinctly trickier than it initially appears, and, of course, there's plenty to handle in her personal life between Charlie and his new bride and Mma Makutsi and her talking shoes.

In the end, Mma Ramotswe's patience and common-sense will win out, and, without a doubt, all will be the better for it.
