Alexander McCall Smith The Joy and Light Bus Company

Mma Ramotswe knows she is very lucky indeed. She has a loving family, good friends and a thriving business doing what she enjoys most: helping people. But the latest mystery she is called upon to solve is distinctly trickier than it initially appears, and, of course, there’s plenty to handle in her personal life... We welcome the prolific and multi-million best-selling author of the much loved No. 1 Ladies’ Detective Agency as he unveils the latest adventures of the indomitable Botswanan detective, and shares with us his new stand alone novel set in Ceylon in the final days of the Empire.
