Recensione:
Praise for internationally bestselling author Alexander McCall Smith:
“At a certain point in reading the No. 1 Ladies’ Detective Agency books, I experienced something I haven’t felt
since reading Nancy Drew books as a child. I no longer wanted to read about Mma Ramotswe: I wanted to be her.”
–The Vancouver Sun
