Recruited straight from university to Botswana's CID, David 'Kubu' Bengu has raised his colleagues' suspicions with his meteoric rise within the department, and he has a lot to prove... When the richest diamond mine in the world is robbed of 100,000 carats worth of gems, and then the thieves are killed, execution-style, Kubu leaps at the chance to prove himself. But where are the diamonds? And what role does a witch doctor and his son play? Does this young detective have the skill - and integrity - to engineer an international trap?
