Evil on the Prowl (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781477223406)

In Evil on the Prowl, a divorced former schoolteacher becomes a well-respected church leader. The causes of her divorce as Tito and Tongai were informed one afternoon is because, according to Nhau her ex-husband, she is an unscrupulous character, a woman of questionable ethics. All she thinks of is making money by whatever means possible, however dubious. Meanwhile, for weeks on end, the city of Marondera is gripped by a crime wave as groups of criminals operate with impunity - robbing, abducting, raping, and printing and circulating counterfeit money. Ordinary people disappear without trace. Men taken from the streets are drugged with numbing regularity then transformed into sex machines and subjected to violent sex escapades without them knowing it is happening. A team of police detectives follow a number of leads in the days and weeks to come, but none of them yield what each has promised at the beginning. The police is increasingly frustrated by its apparent failure to get rid of the criminals as crime in the city is on the increase. Then, Wanzai and her son are murdered in cold blood, and a suspected thief, is caught at the funeral wake of the deceased in the middle of the night. Intelligence received from the suspect reveals that a religious shrine in a village in Domboshava is a centre for dubious activities other than being solely a place for warship. At the centre of it all is one woman, "Her Anointed One."
