Discussion Questions:
1. How did you react to the style of Precious solving lots of smaller cases,
rather than the traditional one murder case being the center focus?
2. Did you enjoy the section about Obed Ramotswe and his story, or did
you find it a distraction from the main story?
3. Obed makes several suggestions to Precious as to what she should do with
the money from selling the herd. Why do you think she chooses to open a
detective agency instead?
4. Which was your favorite case? Why?
5. How is life different in Botswana? How does this affect the story?
