"Catch up on the latest from Mma Ramotswe, Mma Makutsi and other favourites in this new instalment of Alexander McCall Smith's The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency series.

""Mma Ramotswe is a glorious creation"" Mail on Sunday

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 between Charlie and his new bride and Mma Makutsi and her talking shoes.

In the end, Mma Ramotswe's patience and common-sense will win out, and, without a doubt, all will be the better for it.

""Full of delight"" Sunday Herald

""Hugely enjoyable"" Sunday Times"

Reviews for The Joy and Light Bus Company

Everything about [McCall Smith] is appealing. He's just full of delight - it just bubbles out of him * Sunday Herald * The hypnotic ease of McCall Smith's style makes everything clear almost instantly * Daily Telegraph * McCall Smith's familiar tone of wry amusement permeates the narrative, as does the detective's wisdom . . . hugely enjoyable * Sunday Times * Mma Ramotswe is a glorious creation, a character likely to prove every bit as enduring as Miss Marple or Hercule Poirot * Mail on Sunday * An ultra-smooth ride . . . almost more blissful than even McCall Smith's millions of regular devotees could pray for or hope * Scotsman * Blake may have been able to see the world in a grain of sand, but McCall Smith can encapsulate the human condition in a plate of stewed pumpkin. His talent is to see the god in small things * Sunday Times Scotland *
