About this listen
Mr J.L.B. Matekoni is also drawn into the work of the agency when he investigates a case involving an errant husband. But can a man investigate such matters with as much skill as one of the ladies? Mma Ramotswe has her doubts. One thing, though, that she does not doubt is the good nature of Mr J.L.B. Matekoni, who stands for all that is solid and true in a shifting world.

Critic reviews
"A highly entertaining listen." ( Financial Times)
"Delightful....The warm humanity infused throughout [McCall Smith¿s] novels is what brings readers back....There is simplicity and lyricism in [the] language that brings out the profound importance of everyday revelations." ( San Francisco Chronicle)
"There is something so soothing about Precious Ramotswe's adventures. Reading one is like taking a lazy cruise down a slow-moving river on a hot day. And as diverse as the mysteries in each book are, there is always a common thread that draws them together in their solutions. I often wonder how Alexander McCall Smith does it, because I never suspect how everything will turn out, beyond that all will be for the best." ( New Brunswick Telegraph-Journal)

Having read the previous books in text form, I was a little nervous about how the character's 'voices' would sit with my own previously imagined ones. What a revelation - the reader's interpretation thoughroughly enhanced my experience of the text. The authentic African voices of the reader's performance delivered an experience closer to McCall's written intention than I could ever have hoped for from reading the text myself. I found myself thinking with each new character 'Yes, that's exactly how they sound!'. I'll certainly to downloading the next in the series and can highly recommend this version to all devotees of the books.
