The one where it all begins Mma Ramotswe is the proud proprieter of the finest ladies'
detective agency in all Botswana (also the only one). She spends her time with a cup of
redbush tea beneath the acacia tree waiting for clients. When they come along whether it is
to enquire after a missing spouse or check the identity of a long-lost father it is not The
Principles of Private Detection that helps her to solve cases but old-fashioned common sense
and a warm-hearted understanding of the fallibility of human nature -especially that of men.
