From a Far and Lovely Country 

by Alexander McCall Smith 

Mma Ramotswe and Mr. J.L.B. Matekoni are enjoying a nice meal out at a peri-peri restaurant when an American woman named Julia approaches seeking Mma Ramotswe’s help.

Now, years after his passing, Julia has come to visit the land he had spoken of so often and to find her relatives.

It’s not a lot to go on, but if anyone is well poised to help, it’s Mma Ramotswe, Botswana’s premier detective.
