of Alexander McCall Smith about the No.1 Ladies' Detective Agency in Botswana.
The similarities include a tiny, non-profit agency known for its humaneness. The
difference is that this one specializes in small walking groups for maximum
flexibility. If you know and love an area and would be willing to share its
uniqueness, please let me know. Your on-site travel expenses would be covered in
exchange for your knowledge and experience.
