Mma Ramotswe & Mma Makutsi are called to a safari lodge in Botswana's Okavango Delta to carry out a delicate mission on behalf of a former guest. The Okavango makes Precious appreciate once again the beauty of her homeland: it is a paradise of teeming wildlife, majestic grasslands & sparkling water.

What's more, Mma Makutsi still does not have a date for her wedding to Phuti Radiphuti & is feeling rather tetchy herself. But Precious knows that with a little patience, just as the wide river will gently make its way round any obstacle, so will everything work out for the best in the end.. . ...

But it is clear to Mma Ramotswe that Rra Anderson is not a regular visitor to Botswana, where friends & family, like cattle & acacia trees, are everywhere. However, as the rains arrive, along with a new crop of cases for the No.1 Ladies Detective Agency, it would seem that Anderson's words may contain wisdom. For while searching for the beneficiary of a faraway American lady's legacy on a distant safari camp appears straightforward, old friend Mma Mateleke's suspicions that her husband has strayed will certainly require a delicate touch. & when Mma Makutsi's husb&-to-be Mr Phuti Radiphuti is injured & an unpleasant senior aunt seeks to supplant his fiancee at the bedside, the ties of blood appear more problematic still. ...

In whatever form dragons appear, in fiction, legend or the unconcious, they are always powerful. Seen as aspects of ourselves they can represent depths of power, which we mere human beings find difficult to come to terms with. These depths may only be accessible through acknowledging untamed & unsocialized aspects of ourselves. Here is the soft underbelly of the universe, fire-breathing outrage, the instinctive desire to protect at all costs, the erotic & occasionally ecstatic experience of reality. What do dragons do?
