Making Wolf

''Shocking and perceptive'' Guardian''It was easy to stay up well past lights out to read just one more chapter - and then one more...'' James Oswald''Engaging'' Sunday TimesLONGLISTED FOR THE CWA GOLD DAGGERMeet Weston Kogi, a London supermarket store detective. He returns home to his West African home country for his aunt''s funeral. He sees his family, his ex-girlfriend Nana, his old school mate Church. Food is good, beer is plentiful, and telling people he works as a homicide detective seems like harmless hyperbole, until he wakes up in hell.He is kidnapped and forced by two separate rebel factions to investigate the murder of a local hero, Papa Busi. The solution may tip a country on the brink into civil war. Making Wolf is the outrageous, frightening, violent and sometimes surreal homecoming experience of a lifetime.Praise for Tade Thompson:''Breathtaking landscapes and intoxicating food and drink . . . endemic corruption, sultry sexuality and casual, slapdash violence . . . A rock-and-roll edge'' The Financial Times''Brutal, uncompromising and thought-provoking . . . superb'' M. W. Craven''A magnificent tour de force'' Adrian Tchaikovsky''Smart. Gripping. Fabulous!'' Ann Leckie''Mesmerising'' M. R. Carey
