'Shocking and perceptive' Guardian 'It was easy to stay up well
past lights out to read just one more chapter - and then one
more...' James Oswald 'Engaging' Sunday Times LONGLISTED FOR THE
CWA GOLD DAGGER Meet Weston Kogi, a London supermarket store
detective. He returns home to his West African home country for his
aunt's funeral. He sees his family, his ex-girlfriend Nana, his old
school mate Church. Food is good, beer is plentiful, and telling
people he works as a homicide detective seems like harmless
hyperbole, until he wakes up in hell. He is kidnapped and forced by
two separate rebel factions to investigate the murder of a local
hero, Papa Busi. The solution may tip a country on the brink into
civil war. Making Wolf is the outrageous, frightening, violent and
sometimes surreal homecoming experience of a lifetime. Praise for
Tade Thompson: 'Breathtaking landscapes and intoxicating food and
drink . . . endemic corruption, sultry sexuality and casual,
slapdash violence . . . A rock-and-roll edge' The Financial Times
'Brutal, uncompromising and thought-provoking . . . superb' M. W.
Craven 'A magnificent tour de force' Adrian Tchaikovsky 'Smart.
Gripping. Fabulous!' Ann Leckie 'Mesmerising' M. R. Carey
