Have you met Detective David ‘Kubu’ Bhengu? You haven’t? Well, you are in luck, because Michael Sears and Stanley Trollip decided to write a prequel to their six-novel series featuring Kubu and Facets of Death is exactly where his story starts.
The first thing you need to know about the inimitable Detective Kubu is the origin of his name.
Kubu is Setswana for hippopotamus and even though it’s an accurate indication of his size and appetite, Kubu is neither as dangerous nor as aggressive as his animal counterpart. Nevertheless, his persistence and thorough investigative skills should not be underestimated – a fact the slew of criminals he lands behind bars can attest to.
