The first book in the series,
The Missing American, is a twisty page-turner, delving into the dark domain of Ghanaian internet fraudsters - but they are only part of a vicious web of corruption and witchcraft that reaches all the way to the top echelons of society. ....

The butler did it. Or in this case, the chauffeur. Well, at least that’s who the Ghana police pin it on when renowned fashion designer, Lady Araba, is found bludgeoned to death in her luxury villa in a gated estate in Trasacco Valley – the Beverly Hills of Accra. Don’t be fooled by the cosy-sounding set-up, though. This is no rehash of The No1 Ladies’ Detective Agency. Kwei Quartey’s second Emma Djan novel is dark detective fiction with a hint of noir and an authentic African flavour.
Ten months after the murder, Dele Teffeyfio, Araba’s dressmaker aunt who took her under her wing as a child, walks into the Sowah Private Investigators Agency requesting the murder be reinvestigated. Dele is convinced that Araba’s on-off celebrity boyfriend, Augustus Seeza, is guilty of her murder.

Audrey Lane, the headstrong young heroine of Wedderburn’s high-powered follow-up to
The Milk Chicken Bomb is obsessed with everything about the open road. At 20, Audrey gets her dream job driving a truck around the oil fields not far from Calgary, Alberta. Shortly after, she impulsively runs away from the job and the camp where she’s been staying, and ends up in a gritty Edmonton bar. She talks her way into a job as the driver for a bar band called the Lever Men, with none of them sober enough to drive to their next gig. Along the way, Audrey furthers her cross-country education: lonesome highways, dive bars with names like the Crash Palace (and the unique characters who frequent them), and camaraderie with the four Lever Men, to whom she is both den mother and little sister. Wedderburn then jumps nearly a decade to find Audrey a single mother with a young daughter. After reading about the death of Crash Palace owner Alex Main in a Calgary paper, Audrey reels back into me ....
