Everything about [McCall Smith] is appealing. He's just full of
delight - it just bubbles out of him
*Sunday Herald*
The hypnotic ease of McCall Smith's style makes everything clear
almost instantly
*Daily Telegraph*
McCall Smith's familiar tone of wry amusement permeates the
narrative, as does the detective's wisdom . . . hugely
enjoyable
*Sunday Times*
Mma Ramotswe is a glorious creation, a character likely to prove
every bit as enduring as Miss Marple or Hercule Poirot
*Mail on Sunday*
An ultra-smooth ride . . . almost more blissful than even McCall
Smith's millions of regular devotees could pray for or hope
*Scotsman*
Blake may have been able to see the world in a grain of sand, but
McCall Smith can encapsulate the human condition in a plate of
stewed pumpkin. His talent is to see the god in small things
*Sunday Times Scotland*
Equally as brilliant as the previous editions. . . . McCall Smith
writes with deceptive simplicity, yet his work is laced with worthy
insight, and dry, yet charming, humour.
*Scottish Field*
