Jake and Jouma, Fiction, Crime & mystery
The second book by exceptional UK crime author, Nick Brownlee, featuring the crime-busting duo Jake and Jouma
Just when Inspector Daniel Jouma believes calm has returned to Mombasa, all hell breaks loose. Bodies are piling up in the morgue, Jouma's new boss wants answers - and the mayor wants him out.
Meanwhile, bulldozers are hurtling towards Jake Moore's stomping ground. Playing hero, the maverick cop turned fishing-boat skipper faces up to the might of Kenya's most ruthless - and dangerous - developer.
Then a chilling secret, long thought to be buried in the ashes of a deadly inferno, brings the crime-busting duo together once again. And Jake and Jouma are about to discover that, when you play with fire, someone always gets burned...
