'Fans of Alexander McCall Smith will love Scotty Elliott's Sibanda series'
Sunday Times (SA)
When a skinned body is discovered on the side of the railway line deep in the
Matabele bush, Detective Inspector Jabulani Sibanda, along with his sidekicks,
Sergeant Ncube and the troublesome Land Rover, Miss Daisy, is back on the
trail of a murderer. As more girls go missing and more bones are discovered,
Sibanda realises they are dealing with the signature of a vicious serial
killer who chooses the train as his killing field.
Suspects abound, and the trio pursues the leads relentlessly, but the warped
psychopath is elusive. Has Sibanda met his match? To complicate matters, his
unrequited love interest, Berry Barton, is back on his radar, Gubu police
station politics are as partisan as ever and Sgt Ncube, in an attempt to equal
the brilliance of his boss, has discovered the wonders of the Oxford English
Dictionary, to hilarious results.
With winter tightening its grip, and drought and hardship threatening the
population, Sibanda uses a risky strategy to trap his nemesis. Can he pull it
off?
Praise for C. M. Elliott:
'Her plot keeps readers guessing right to the end, when the monster meets a
truly satisfying fate . . . Elliott's skill as a writer lies in her ability to
create and flesh out characters that are so lifelike, they thrum in your head
for days after finishing her books' Business Live
'Will have you hooked' The Gremlin
'C.M. Elliott has created a lively cast of characters and an intricate, clever
plot' Margaret von Klemperer, The Witness
'A thrilling detective yarn and a finely-drawn picture of the counterpoint
between the gentle music of the bush and the harsher notes of poachers' deadly
gunfire' The Citizen
