“This intriguing and well-written thriller brings the horrors of Uganda and its vicious lawlessness to London…Highly original…Sherez ventures into a part of London that crime fiction readers probably never see…an underworld in which migrants live in parallel with their hosts. A salutary read, highly recommended.”
