Morality for Beautiful Girls (No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency, Book 3)

Morality for Beautiful Girls - Alexander McCall Smith Third novel in his Lady Detective agency. It's a lovely book, old fashioned in its slow pace, very low key plot.It's a slice of life from a world that moves at a different pace from ours. In this we meet our detective Mma Ramotswe again facing the daily chores of a business woman (her business is not making enough money to cover Mma Makutsi's raised in status and pay), an engaged to be married woman (her fiancé Mr. Matekoni is acting strangely). Mma Makutsi takes on her first case and the apprentices in Mr Matekoni's garage. All ends well as it should be but the journey there was interesting.
