Customer Review: A Carrion Death

A Carrion Death
by Michael Stanley

First in the series with Detective Kubu, we search for both the identity and the killer of a body found bleaching near a Botswanian waterhole. Kubu follows a tangled -- there are more than 70 chapters -- plot to root out the mystery involving diamonds, sibling rivalry, business takeovers, shady characters, Botswanian politics and geology. Well-written, very interesting characters, good story. I expect as the writer continues the series, some small hiccups in plotting will fade away and I look forward to reading more in the series. -- reviewed by Barbara R. - patron of the Anderson and Bethany Branch Libraries
