Detective David “Kubu” Bengu is an Assistant Superintendent in the Botswana Criminal Investigation Department. He makes his debut in A Carrion Death – Michael Stanley’s first novel.
Kubu is a very large man, which gives rise to his nickname. “Kubu” is Setswana for hippopotamus. Like his namesake, Kubu is slow to be moved to anger, but not someone to be crossed. Happily married, with a sly sense of humor and a passion for food and wine, Kubu is proud of his country and determined to maintain its role as the model African nation – democratic, stable, and rich. But there are people who want to plunder those riches; people who threaten the stability of the country itself. It’s Kubu’s responsibility to bring them to justice.
Michael Stanley is the writing team of Michael Sears and Stanley Trollip, two South African-born friends who have traveled frequently to the magnificent Botswana wilderness.
