Alexander McCall Smith: Tea Time For the Traditionally Built, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Kurzbeschreibung

Es ist eine bedrückende Wahrheit, die Detektivin Mma Ramotswe und ihre Assistentin Madame Makutsi feststellen: Es gibt Dinge, in denen Männer Bescheid wissen und Frauen nicht, und umgekehrt. So ist es unglücklich, dass Ramotswes neuester Kunde der Besitzer des kränkelnden Fußballclubs "Kalahari Swoopers" ist - und sie keine Ahnung von Fußball hat. Und als die mondäne Violet Sephotho ein Auge auf den Verlobten von Mma Makutsi wirft, wird ebenso schmerzhaft klar, dass Männer nicht erkennen, wenn ihnen ein skrupelloses Flittchen gegenübersteht - selbst wenn es auf dem besten Bett des Double Comfort Furniture Shops auf und ab springt ...

Beschreibung

It is a troublesome fact on which even Mma Ramotswe and her assistant Mma Makutsi agree: there are things that men know and ladies do not, and vice versa. It is unfortunate, for example, when Mma Ramotswe's newest client is the big-shot owner of the ailing Kalahari Swoopers, that one thing lady detectives know very little about is football. And when the glamorous Violet Sephotho sets her sights on Mma Makutsi's unsuspecting fiance, it becomes exasperatingly clear that some men do not know how to recognise a ruthless Jezebel even when she is bouncing up and down on the best bed in the Double Comfort Furniture Shop. In her attempt to foster understanding between the sexes and find the traitor on Mr Football's team, Mma Ramotswe ventures into new territory, drinks tea in unfamiliar kitchens and learns to trust in the observational powers of small boys. And, as wise and warm-hearted as his heroine, Alexander McCall Smith reminds us that we must dig deep to uncover the goodness of the human heart.

Klappentext

The one where Mma Makutsi has a love rival

Mma Makutsi's engagement to Phuti Radiphuti has progressed smoothly so far but suddenly there is trouble in the form of glamorous, empty-headed Violet Sephotho, who has set her sights on her former classmate's fiancé. Solving the amorous problems of her neighbours and clients is where Mma Ramotswe excels, but the world of football is decidedly less familiar - however, when the owner of the Kalahari Swoopers comes asking for the help of the No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency, she promises to find the traitor among the team's ranks.
