Content

“There is no problem so great it cannot be solved by a cup of bush tea.”
The prolific Alexander McCall Smith is the undisputed king of cosy crime, the antithesis of the much-touted Tartan Noir movement. His Precious Ramotswe novels may not feature much blood and guts, but readers love them for their humour and respect for African traditions. (The Independent)
