Visually the exterior appearance is exceptional and even internally,is also in a more than acceptable condition/state of preservation and presentation.It really is an exemplary example for its cleanliness,brightness and lack of other,major detracting faults.
DSI William Lorimer and his wife Maggie are taking their first extended holiday for the first time in years, and they're looking for an adventure. What better place than Zimbabwe,with its bustling cities and beautiful scenery? Back in Glasgow, PC Daniel Kohi,former inspector with the Zimbabwean police,finds himself uncomfortably close to a murder investigation. Why did the murdered man appear at Daniel's house just hours before he was killed? And how he is connected to the troubled family history of Netta Gordon,Daniel's dear friend and lodger?
But it's not just Netta's history that's about to resurface. For in Zimbabwe,rumours are circulating about Daniel Kohi,and the couple from Scotland who appear to know him. Rumours which could place the Lorimers in unimaginable peril. Please contact seller,for correct shipping/P+p quotes - particularly ALL overseas customers - BEFORE ordering through the order page!
