(Read by Lisette Lecat; Recorded Books; 9 CDs; 9.75 hours)
In this 15th installment of the "Ladies No. 1 Detective Agency" mysteries, Mma Ramotswe is trying to solve the mystery of a woman who lost her memory. Her business partner, Grace Makutsi, has branched out on her own and opened The Handsome Man's Deluxe Café, to very mixed results. The story is breezy and fun but also inconsequential with minimal mystery. Narrator Lisette Lecat, however, is a treasure. Lecat is a native of South Africa and her Botswanan characters sound authentic and as she captures their humor, introspection, and occasional agitation.
