Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
In Morality for Beautiful Girls, Precious Ramotswe, founder and owner of the only detective agency for the concerns of both ladies and others, investigates the alleged poisoning of the brother of an important “Government Man,” and the moral character of the four finalists of the Miss Beauty and Integrity Contest, the winner of which will almost certainly be a contestant for the title of Miss Botswana. Yet her business is having money problems, and when other difficulties arise at her fianc?’s Tlokweng Road Speedy Motors, she discovers the reliable Mr J.L.B. Matekoni is more complicated then he seems.

Third in the No. 1 Ladies' Detective series.
Mma. Makutsi plays a more important part in this book. When Mr. J.L.B. Matekoni suddenly loses interest in his shop, Mma. Makutsi gets yet another promotion, to acting manager. She does a great job, managing to motivate the two lazy apprentices while also earning a large fee for the detective agency.
Meanwhile, Mma. Ramotswe tries to help Mr. J.L.B. Motekoni conquer his bout of depression. She reads everything she can find on the subject and also enlists the aid of the woman who runs the orphan farm.

Another great read from the ladies detective series. I'm ready for the subsequent book.

Is there anyone who does not find the character of Precious Ramotswe charming? This traditionally built (fat) African lady detective takes a back seat to her homely assistant detective, Mme. Makutsi, in this installment of the series. Nevertheless, we are favored with the wise one liners of these patient busybodies. Mme Makutsi with her oversized glasses and her too dark skin shines. The detective agency is charged with the task of finding a young woman whose integrity matches her beauty among contestants in a beauty pagent. To the reviewer who wrote that too many story lines are left dangling, I recommend reading the subsequent installment. I have not read these in the proper order, but I loved them all. If you can read these in the proper order, I recommend it. I can't wait for the subsequent one as this completes my read of all the outstanding installments.
Rated by buyers -
Keeps your interest all the way through the book, in fact, throughout the whole series.
Rated by buyers -
I just love the series of the No.1 Ladies Detective Agency. What has always impressed me about these books is how no person is simply a one-dimensional character. Maids, cooks, Important Government Men, fiancees, children and garage apprentices all have complex motives and emotions. How human.
