The Double Comfort Safari Club
In this novel, Mma Ramotswe and Mma Makutsi once again have their fair share of seemingly normal, innocent mysteries to solve. The duo must locate a safari guide held in high regard by a late American guest who has left him a steep legacy, as well as investigate the husband of a local woman who suspects he is cheating, when it is actually more likely that she is the deceiving party in their relationship. Sprinkled with the usual anecdotes on living and leading a decent life in the style of Botswana, McCall Smith provides another cozy experience that will make you feel thankful and count your own blessings.
The Double Comfort Safari Club
One of the main reasons I love the No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency series is because McCall Smith paints a really beautiful picture of the lifestyle of Botswana people; beautiful because they take nothing for granted and strive to see the good in other people. Many Botswana people live simply and spare themselves the extravagances other cultures get wrapped up in, although Botswanans have every opportunity to do otherwise.
Every time I finish a novel in this series, my brain is steeped in deep thought for a few days afterwards, pondering the troubles of my own life and realizing that it's not so bad after all.
