Notes
Description
"Local police Detective Ishmael--an African-American in an 'extremely white' town--suspects the crime is racially motivated; the Ku Klux Klan still holds rallies there, after all. But then he gets a mysterious phone call: 'If you want the truth, you must go to its source. The truth is in the past. Come to Nairobi.' It's the beginning of a journey that will take him to a place still vibrating from the genocide that happened around its borders, where violence is a part of everyday life, where big-oil money rules and where the local cops shoot first and ask questions later--a place, in short, where knowing the truth about history can get you killed."--www.Amazon.com.
