People are vanishing all around Maun; a small town in northern Botswana not known for its serious crime. So far there are no bodies only clues. The kidnap victims may still be alive but the clock is ticking. Some say it is the work of a serial killer while others say that body parts are being taken from the victims for muti. Is the Spiritual Awakening Revival Church somehow involved and where does the brand new HIV/AIDS facility, Hope Institute, fit in?
Brought in to solve these crimes is disgraced detective Dambuza Chakalisa. With the help of a local resident and tour operator Delly Woods, he must get to the bottom of the mystery before it’s too late to find any of the vanished alive.
Lauri Kubuitsile is one of Botswana’s most renowned and successful authors with numerous published books in Botswana, in South Africa and overseas. She lives in Mahalapye with her family. Her stories delight children and adults alike with her keen eye for detail and knowing sense of humour.
The Vanishings is the first novel in a new crime series and we look forward to the sequel with bated breath.
