In this latest installment in the cherished No. 1 Ladiesā€™ Detective Agency series, Mma Ramotswe must balance family obligations with the growing needs of one of Charlieā€™s pet projects.

Precious Ramotswe loves her dependable old van. Yes, it sometimes takes a bit longer to get going now, and it has developed some quirks over the years, but it has always gotten the job done.
This time, though, the worldā€”and Charlieā€”may be asking too much of it, for when he borrows the beloved vehicle, he returns it damaged. And, to make matters worse, the interior seems to have acquired an
earthy smell that even Precious canā€™t identify.

But the olfactory issue is not the only mystery that needs solving. Mma Ramotswe is confronted by a distant relative, Blessing, who asks for help with an ailing cousin. The help requested is of a
distinctly pecuniary nature, which makes both Mr. J.L.B. Matekoni and Mma Makutsi suspicious. And there is no peace at home, either, as the new neighbors are airing their marital grievances rather
loudly. Still, Mma Ramotswe is confident that the solutions to all of these difficulties are there to be discoveredā€”as long as she is led by kindness, grace, and logic and can rely on the counsel of her friends and loved ones.
