I love reading this series of books...getting to know each character better, learning more about their past, families, people. And I love reading about Botswana and it's culture, especially the old customs and manners and morality. For this book number 5, I won't tell you about the cases Precious investigates, but I will say that Mr. J.L.B. Matekoni is duped into doing a parachute jump for publicity by the bossy Mma Potokwane, matron of the orphan farm. He never seems to be able to tell her "no" but Precious finds a way to get someone else to take his place. In the end, he takes a different big jump, by finally getting married!
