Synopsis
Fans around the world adore the bestselling No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency series and its proprietor, Precious Ramotswe, Botswana's premier lady detective. In this charming series, Mma Ramotswe--with help from her loyal associate, Grace Makutsi--navigates her cases and her personal life with wisdom, good humor, and the occasional cup of tea. In this installment of the beloved and best-selling No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency series, Precious Ramotswe learns valuable lessons about first impressions and forgiveness. Mr. Polopetsi tells Mma Ramotswe and Mma Makutsi a troubling story about a woman who has been wrongly dismissed from her job. Never one to let an injustice go unanswered, Mma Ramotswe begins to investigate, but she soon discovers that the case is more complicated than she initially suspected. Other surprises await our intrepid proprietress. Mma Ramotswe happens to hear of a local nurse named Mingie Ramotswe. Who is this mystery lady? Then, she finds out that an unpleasant figure from her past has recently been spotted in town. With the generosity and good humor that guide all her endeavors, Mma Ramotswe will untangle these questions, ultimately bringing to light important truths about friendship and family--both the one you're born with and the one you choose.

    The item’s quality is excellent, just as described in the listing. The packaging was outstanding, ensuring it wasn’t damaged during shipping and transit, and it was bagged and boarded for extra protection. The magazine is brand new and from the 2010s, making it rare, especially since Marvel editions are out of print. The value is well worth it given its scarcity. The seller’s communication was also great, answering any questions promptly. Overall, I am very satisfied.

    Arrived perfectly and well protected. Loved that my order was shipped in one package and within a sturdy envelope so it could be delivered to my letterbox and not a parcel on my front step. As described and happy with my purchase.

My item was well protected in its packaging, shipping even came earlier than expected, and it was fairly priced. I highly suggest this seller, and I will likely continue to buy from him.
