Grace Makutsi's husband, Phuti, is facing a challenging situation. An international firm is attempting to undercut his prices in the office furniture market, and they have launched a slick new advertising campaign that seems unbeatable. However, with the help of Mma Ramotswe, Phuti comes up with a campaign that has the potential to turn the tide.

Meanwhile, Mma Makutsi is approached by an old friend who has a troubled son. Grace and Phuti agree to lend a hand, but the boy proves difficult to reach, and the situation becomes more than they can handle on their own. It will require not only their patience and dedication, but also the help of Mma Ramotswe and the formidable Mma Potokwani.
