Girls are disappearing in Botswana. The rumor is they're being
harvested for muti, a witch doctor's potion traditionally derived
from plants and animals--and which, some believe, can be made more
potent by adding human remains. Detective David "Kubu" Bengu joins
the investigation with the police force's newest detective--and
only woman--Samantha Khama, for whom the case is personal.
Soon one girl's father, convinced that his daughter's death is
linked to the recent popularity of a political candidate, takes the
law into his own hands. After the father flees, what Kubu and
Samantha find in the politician's home confirms their worst fears:
muti containing human DNA is real.
Now Kubu and Samantha are thrust into a harrowing race to stop a
serial killer or killers--and those who would pay for their
special, lethal muti.
