Beschreibung

'What The Crocodiles Don't Eat...is a sequel to 'No Happy Valley' in the 'Winds of Change' trilogy. The reality of Uhuru, for which Peter and Rafiki fought so bravely, hits them hard when they discover a number of corrupt practices within Government and the Police. From temperate Nairobi, to the inhospitable forests of the Aberdares, the steamy shores of Lake Victoria and the tropical ports of Dar-es-Salaam and Mombasa, the story takes readers through the tribulations of trying to stop the corruption, which includes the abduction of their precious son, Kamau. Many of the characters involved in 'No Happy Valley' have a role to play in this fast paced adventure story, which results in the capture and conviction of the perpetrators of the corruption. The story is authetic, although all the characters are imginary. The author spent his youth on Kenya and knows all the places discussed in the book.
