Publisher's Synopsis
Blue Shoes and Happiness brings more adventures for Precious Ramotswe and her fine assistant Mma Makutsi. They encounter a cobra in the office, complaints of faulty blood-pressure readings at the medical clinic, a superstitious group of farm workers, and it looks like Aunty Emang, advice columnist in the local newspaper, may not be what she seems. And there's trouble brewing in Mma Makutsi's personal life - her greedy uncles are demanding an extra-large bride price from her well-to-do fiancé. Money may be able to buy her that fashionable, but uncomfortable, pair of blue shoes, but it won't buy her the happiness that Mma Ramotswe promises can be found in the simpler things in life - in plenty of bush tea and relaxing Botswana skies.
