From backcover:
In Morality for Beautiful Girls, Precious Ramotswe, founder and owner of the only detective agency for the concerns of both ladies and others, investigates the alleged poisoning of the brother of an important “Government Man,” and the moral character of the four finalists of the Miss Beauty and Integrity Contest, the winner of which will almost certainly be a contestant for the title of Miss Botswana. Yet her business is having money problems, and when other difficulties arise at her fiance’s Tlokweng Road Speedy Motors, she discovers the reliable Mr J.L.B. Matekoni is more complicated than he seems.
I have enjoyed this series. They are not the traditional mystery involving mayhem and perhaps murder, although there is usually some mystery to be solved. These books evoke a sense of the beauty and timelessness that is Africa - a love of the land, traditions that span many generations. In many ways, I find this series to be peaceful and a welcome break from my day. Definitely recommended.
