The Saturday Big Tent Wedding Party

The Saturday Big Tent Wedding Party by Alexander McCall Smith, Little, Brown, $34.99.

What a joy to catch up once again with our old fictional friend Precious Ramotswe, and the small mysteries and daily dramas of life in Botswana.

Readers familiar with the No.1 Ladies’ Detective Agency will be thrilled to spot this latest instalment, and settle in for a pleasurable escape to the company of a traditionally built lady with a brain for detection.

The countdown is on to Mma Makutsi’s wedding, but there are obstacles big and small to overcome.

Naughty apprentice Charlie may have gone too far with his adolescent shenanigans. Mma Ramotswe is on the hunt for a cattle killer, and for the ghost of her much loved little white van. And then there’s the drama of the costly but unreliable wedding shoes, much to Mma Makutsi’s distress.

The Saturday Big Tent Wedding Party is as comfortable, warm and quirky as a zebra print Snuggie: hibernate and enjoy.
