Helpful Score: 1

I thought this book started off slowly, but I loved the way the characters were developed. Further, I don't really think this book fits well into the category of mysteries & thrillers.

It is the story of an African woman who opens the first detective agency and her clientele. You get to hear about the African culture, about mining, about her marriage, and about her definition of success.

I enjoyed the style of writing. All of the characters were well developed as were the stories. Further, I enjoyed the way that Africa acted as a character in the novel. I enjoyed the way that the author made me understand the culture that he was portraying.

Someday, I may go and pick up book 2. For now, I'm content with having finished book 1.
