Synopsis
The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency #7
There is considerable excitement at The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency. A cobra has been found in Precious Ramotswe's office. Then a nurse from a local medical clinic reveals that faulty blood–pressure readings are being recorded there. And Botswana has a new advice columnist, Aunty Emang, whose advice is rather curt for Mma Ramotswe’s taste.

External Reviews
"Character development has continued in each successive book and adds to plot twists. I have been enjoying each of these books very much and Blue Shoe and Happiness is a at a high point for me. I find I am always ready to start a new book in the series as soon as I have finished the last one. If only McCall Smith could write his novels as fast as I can read them.
The mysteries plots as laid out do not follow standard formulas and that also adds to the interest in the stories. I enjoy novels with multiple plot lines and these stories have never failed to interest me partially due to the multiple plot lines which are never quite merged but manage to be resolved by the books ending in a satisfying way.
I don't see how anyone could fail to enjoy each and everyone of the novels in this series. They can be read out of sequence but would be much more interesting when read in sequence." - Google Review.
"McCall Smith manages to examine issues in everyday life and still leave the reader feeling good and wanting more." - Goodreads Review.
