Description:

Life on Tlokweng Road is rarely quiet, and in this seventh outing for Botswana's most beloved detective, Mma Precious Ramotswe has plenty to keep her busy. A cobra has slithered into the office, a curt new advice columnist named Aunty Emang seems to be hiding something nasty, and worrying rumours of falsified blood-pressure readings are emerging from a local medical clinic. Meanwhile, her loyal assistant Mma Makutsi is fretting over her engagement to Phuti Radiphuti — and pining after a fashionable but pinching pair of blue shoes. Through every case and every cup of bush tea, Mma Ramotswe gently reminds us that real happiness is usually found in the simplest of things.
