About this listen

Even the arrival of her baby can't hold Mma Makutsi back from success in the workplace, and so no sooner does she becomes a full partner in the No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency - in spite of Mma Ramotswe's belated claims that she is only 'an assistant full partner' - than she also launches a new enterprise of her own: The Handsome Man's De Luxe Café, Grace Makutsi is a lady with a business plan, but who could predict temperamental chefs, drunken waiters, and more? Luckily, help is at hand, from the only person in Gaborone more gently determined than Mma Makutsi, Mma Ramotswe, of course.

Loved it as I love all these books, except for the new usage of Phuti 's name. What is with the Puti, please revert to the original pronounciation so we feel back at home with the characters. No faults at all with anything else and am looking forward to listening to my next awaiting one.

As a fan of the series, I was disturbed in this volume that Phuti's name was pronounced Puti Radiputi. Besides that, the book was really enjoyable as expected. It kept me entertained during my 5 hour drive across the country.
