Mma Ramotswe is preparing to marry Mr. J. L. B. Matekoni, having decided that he is a good man, and that her Daddy would have thought so too. She knows that marriage will bring many changes into both of their lives.
The first decision to be made will that of where to live. Mma Ramotswe has a well established yard with several trees and a melon patch. Her house is more comfortable and more pleasing inside than Mr. Matekoni’s, so they have made a mutual decision to live there on Zebra Drive. The children which Mr. J.L.B. Matekoni agreed to care for have already moved in there and Mr. Matekoni takes his evening meal there.
Then there are decisions about the businesses to be made. After the wedding they would have two businesses with two offices. Mr. Matekoni has a large amount of office space at Tlocweng Road Soeedy Motors, so it makes sense for Mma Ramotswe to move her office there. She has also decided that Mma Makutsi will work for both businesses as assistant detective for one and as a secretary for both, because Mr. Matekoni needs help with his record keeping.
When Mma Ramotswe goes to explain why Mma Makutsi should work for Tlokweng Road Speedy Motors as well as No. 1 Ladies’ Detective Agency to Mr. J. L. B. Matekoni, he is not there, and the apprentices tell her that he has gone home. It is only two o’clock, so this is odd.
On questioning the apprentices more she discovers that he has left early a good deal lately. He has also not been working on cars himself, but has left a lot of the work to the apprentices. He has also not given them guidance or instruction about repairs even when they asked him to do so.
What is going on with Mr. J. L. B. Matekoni? Is he ill? Can Mma Ramotswe find out the cause of the change in his behavior without offending or pressuring him? Will this problem affect the wedding?

Customer reviews
The No.1 Ladies Detective Agency series is a solid 4-star read. Consistently enjoyable, moderately paced, and a linguistic rhythm of Africa unique to Smith with multiple plots (In fact, this book would've better appease the reader if the poison mystery was marketed over the "mystery" behind the beautiful pageant girls). It was refreshing to see Mme Maktusi evolve more into detective role. Likewise, the connection to the winning pageant contestant was heartwarming as was the final conversation with the Government Man and the care given to Mr. L.B.J. Matekoni. We've written this before of the series, so here it is again: it is hard to resist the urge to liken Mme Ramotswe to Angela Fletcher of "Murder She Wrote"--often without murder as in the case of "Mortality for Beautiful Girls". Such a great series that represents Bostwana and Africa well. This was a great find in our book haul to and from Little Free Libraries nearby.#JozefBookandBreakfast @JozefSyndicate
