Morality for Beautiful Girls Author Alexander McCall Smith
I was given this book for christmas and its brillant. Very light hearted. First time I had heard of this author who was born in Zimbabwe.
He's written a series of books all based around an Ladies Detective Agency in Botswana. I have bought three more in series today and looking forward to reading them in the next couple of weeks

I've read the first one and really enjoyed it and thats why I went and bought the others in the series. I do wonder whether people who have not been brought up with that way of life would appreciate the books as much as people like who are aware of how life actually is in the rural parts of africa.
I really love this series as well but am a bit stuck. I don't know which book is next :duh:
Does anybody know the order?

I think the order is as follows:
