    These pants were bundled with another pair of a different color. Upon packaging for shipment, seller noticed a flaw in the material of these gold ones and refunded the purchase price, yet shipped the pants to me anyway in the bundle. Very honest and ethical seller.

    Come and visit 44 Scotland Street!

    I've read all of the author's The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency books before. This book, a first of another series by the same author was great. Loved the characters.
