Skulduggery (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781838230432)

It's 1995, and Masali-a tiny, tropical West African nation-is hanging by a thread, propped up by foreign aid, juju magic, and rampant corruption. Development banks are pinning their hopes on PGA, a frozen fish start-up meant to feed the nation. But behind the scenes, scheming French partners and crafty local shareholders have other plans-pocket the profits and leave the blame on Dick Harrington, the unsuspecting Englishman they've roped in as managing director.

While fending off smugglers, saboteurs, and shady deals, Dick seems destined for disaster-until his friend, Maître Aimé Matuto, a brilliant and ruthless barrister, steps in. Aimé plays dirty, but in a world where everyone's hustling, he might be Dick's best bet for survival.

Full of wit, danger, and intrigue, Book 1 of the Stuffed in Africa trilogy serves up a wild ride, with a few winners, plenty of losers, and a taste for more to come.
