The Saturday Big Tent Wedding Party ✔✔✔

This is the 12th in McCall Smith's series of books called The #1 Ladies Detective Agency.  They are always such a wonderful treat, with gentle philosophy, wonderful people, and colorful personalities.

Mma Makutsi is about to marry Phuti after a long engagement, Precious discovers her beloved white van is still on the road, Charlie is accused of fathering, and then deserting, twins and of course there's a mystery to solve:  why are the cattle on a local farmer's property being killed.

Mma Makutsi is especially interesting this time around, especially after she goes shopping for shoes to wear at her wedding.  I still see her as she was portrayed in the BBC series a few years ago, which didn't last past the first season, unfortunately.

If I ever had the choice of meeting whatever author I wanted to, Alexander McCall Smith would be high on my list!
