This book is an account of murder and politics in Africa, and an
historical ethnography of southern Annang communities during the
colonial period. Its narrative leads to events between 1945 and
1948 when the imperial gaze of police, press and politicians was
focused on a series of mysterious deaths in south-eastern Nigeria
attributed to the 'man-leopard society'. These murder mysteries,
reported as the 'biggest, strangest murder hunt in the world', were
not just forensic but also related to the broad historical impact
of commercial, Christian and colonial aid relations on Annang
society.
