'Fans of Alexander McCall Smith will love Scotty Elliott's Sibanda
series' Sunday Times (SA) Detective Sibanda and Sergeant Ncube are
back! 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 the men
investigate further, they find links to an ivory smuggling gang and
in their pursuit of the killer, Sibanda and Ncube not only have to
cope with their temperamental Landrover, their chief inspector's
lack of cooperation, but a rough and remote landscape full of wild
and dangerous adventure. Praise for C. M. Elliott: "C.M. Elliott
has created a lively cast of characters and an intricate, clever
plot..." - Margaret von Klemperer, The Witness "A thrilling
detective yarn and a finely-drawn picture of the counterpoint
between the gentle music of the bush and the harsher notes of
poachers' deadly gunfire - The Citizen
