Two bodies are discovered near Gubu, one burning at the base of a tree struck by lightning and, on the banks of the Zambezi, a second killing which threatens to tear Detective Sibanda's life apart. The victims are not connected, as one is a foreign wildlife researcher, and the other a local driver, but Sibanda's intuition tells him the murders are linked. The only clues are a fragment of material found in the brain of one victim, a puncture wound in the thigh of the other, and a diary full of coded names. As Detective Sibanda and Sergeant Ncube investigate further, they find links to an ivory smuggling gang, and in their pursuit of the killer not only have to cope with their temperamental Land Rover, their chief inspector's lack of cooperation, but a rough and remote landscape full of wild and dangerous adventure. An intricate detective yarn told to the gentle music of the bush, and the harsher notes of the poachers' deadly gunfire. 249pp in large glamorous softback.
