Eagerly awaited next instalment of the No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency we are once again transported to Gaborone,capital of Botswana,to enter the world of Precious Ramotswe and her friends.
In 'Blue Shoes and Happiness',Mma Ramotswe has many new challenges to face: a cobra trapped in her small office at Tlokweng Road Speedy Motors,a difficult case of blackmail to solve and - to the astonishment and amusement of her friends - a diet to keep to.
And she is bemused by the less traditional behaviour of her assistant, Grace Makutsi.The graduate of the Botswana Secretarial College is the epitome of the modern woman with feminist views and a taste for fashionable footwear.But will her fiance,Phuti Radiphuti,appreciate Mma Makutsi's progressive ways?
Undaunted,Mma Ramotswe deals with these concerns with her usual resourcefulness and unerring intuition.And all the while,she can take comfort from the small things in life; the simple and frequent pleasures of tea-drinking; the heartbreaking beauty of the African landscape; and from a deep pride in a country where the small kindnesses and civilities still count for so much.
