Perfect for you if...

  • You enjoy mysteries with strong romantic undercurrents set in richly detailed historical settings.
  • You appreciate older mysteries that prioritise atmosphere and character over plot mechanics.
  • You're drawn to stories where personal longing and danger intertwine, making it hard to know who to trust.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You want fast-paced page-turners with frequent twists and surprises.
  • You prefer contemporary settings and find historical detail cumbersome rather than atmospheric.
  • You're looking for romance where the central couple's connection is the heart of the story, not secondary to the mystery.

About this book

Victoria Caryll accepts a position at Flamingo, her aunt's family estate in Kenya's Rift Valley. She hopes the move will allow her to reconnect with Eden DeBrett, a man she was previously engaged to. However, she arrives to find herself in an unstable region still recovering from the Mau Mau revolt, and her aunt's household is grieving a recent murder. Death in Kenya combines mystery and romance within an exotic setting. The novel is set in a region marked by historical conflict and personal tragedy, weaving together these elements throughout the story.
