Dying to Live
Dying to Live
An autopsy reveals that, although he's clearly very old, his internal organs are puzzlingly young. What's more, an old bullet is lodged in one of his muscles ... but where is the entry wound?
When the body is stolen from the morgue and a local witch doctor is reported missing, Detective `Kubu' Bengu gets involved. Kubu and his brilliant young colleague, Detective Samantha Khama, follow the twisting trail through a confusion of rhino-horn smugglers, foreign gangsters and drugs manufacturers. And the deeper they dig, the wider and more dangerous the case becomes...
A fresh, new slice of `Sunshine Noir', Dying to Live is a classic tale of greed, corruption and ruthless thuggery, set in one of the world's most beautiful landscapes, and featuring one of crime fiction's most endearing and humane heroes.
`Richly atmospheric ... a gritty depiction of corruption and deception' Publishers Weekly
`Detective David "Kubu" Bengu is a wonderful creation, complex and beguiling. Compelling and deceptively written' New York Journal of Books
`A wonderful, original voice - McCall Smith with a dark edge and even darker underbelly' Peter James
`My favourite writing duo since Ellery Queen' Ragnar Jonasson
