<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Botswana's Detective Kubu is caught in a twisted tangle of money, murder, andhidden motives, in his second evocative mystery from the author of "A CarrionDeath."<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>"The African Columbo....Like the first book to feature Kubu, <em>A Carrion Death, </em>this is a smart, satisfyingly complex mystery. [Grade] A."<br />--<em>Entertainment Weekly</em></p> </p>The second book in the Inspector Kubu series--penned by a pair of Crime Writers' Association Award-winning South African authors writing under the name Michael Stanley--<em>The Second Death of Goodluck Tinubu </em>treats readers to a gripping and atmospheric story of money, murder, and hidden motives at a remote bush camp in northern Botswana. Set in a country immortalized by Alexander McCall Smith in his <em>The #1 Ladies' Detective Agency </em>novels, <em>The Second Death of Goodluck Tinubu </em>again features an unforgettable lead character the <em>New York Times Book Review</em> calls, "Hugely appealing--big and solid and smart enough to grasp all angles of [a] mystery."</p><p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><p>Normally a peaceful wilderness retreat, the Jackalberry bush camp has suddenly become a ghastly crime scene--and Detective David Kubu Bengu is assigned to the case. Zimbabwean teacher Goodluck Tinubu and another tourist have been found bludgeoned to death, while another guest at the camp--rumored to be a dissident wanted in Zimbabwe--has disappeared without a trace.</p><p>With the local police unable--or unwilling--to provide much assistance, Detective Kubu must rely on his own instincts. But a startling piece of forensic evidence from Goodluck Tinubu's murder adds a complicated twist to the investigation, and Kubu has to work fast to solve a seemingly impossible riddle before more Jackalberry guests meet their deaths. </p>
