_ Based on the international best-seller by acclaimed author Alexander McCall Smith comes the story of a Botswana woman, Mma Precious Ramotswe (fill Scott), who starts up the country's first female-owned detective agency.

"Heartbeat, basically, relocated to Botswana..." - The Guardian

1. PILOT. To set up her agency Precious sells her late father's cows and moves to the big city. As Botswana's finest - and only - female private detective she engages the help of her friends, Mr. JIB Matekoni, proprietor of Tlokweng Road Speedy Motors and Mma Makutsi the fastest typing secretary in Gaborone, and sets ahout solving the mysteries of a missing finger, a dubious Daddy, and a cheating husband.

2. THE BIG BONANZA. Desperately in need of clients, Mma Makutsi prints flyers, which seem to do the trick.

Precious soon finds herself hunting down an absconding apostolic, finding a disappearing dog, and checking up on a definitely disturbed dentist.

3. POISON. Precious gets caught between a dangerous case of ivory smuggling and a feuding family when she is asked to investigate the unusual behaviour of the owner of a curio shop, Rra lisindi. Meanwhile Mma Makutsi is entrusted with the task of solving Tlokweng Hospital's spate of mysteriously regular deaths.

4. THE BOY WITH THE AFRICAN HEART. Precious is helping Mrs. Curtin to find her son who has been missing for

10 years. Unsure whether he is alive or dead, Precious digs up his past, only to uncover some shocking truths

5. PROBLEMS IN MORAL. PHILOSOPY. Mma Pekwane suspects her husband has bought a stolen car. Precious offers some creative advice, which involves a foray into auto theft. Meanwhile Mma Makutsi embarks on her first full case, full of undercover operations, high speed car chases and quick getaways.

6. BEAUTY AND INTEGRITY. Mma Matkutsi investigates the behaviour of contestants in a local beauty pageant, while Precious has trouble solving the case of Nandira Patel's mystery boyfriend. To make matters worse, the contemptible Cephas Buthelezi opens a rival agency and is intent on taking the ladies down.

7. A REAL. BOTSWANA DIAMOND. The No. 1 Ladies are the latest victims of the Kgale Hill break ins and Precious and JIB's engagement is not going as smoothly as expected. The return of Note Mokoti, fake diamonds and Cephas Buthelezi's ruthless attempt at blackmail, force Precious to face her demons before she can move on.
