Description

From women with killer bodies to shadowy men walking their crooked miles through unsuspecting citizenry, A Body Made For Sin is a treasure trove for armchair crime solvers. It is written in the lyrical style that has made Alexander Nderitu ‘one of the greatest authors to emerge from the African continent’ (Nairobi Business Monthly).

The death of a party girl sparks a deadly melodrama…In the aftermath of tribal conflict, an experimental rock band tours cautiously…Penis-hardening videos of a rich pastor and a hot parishioner are leaked online…A Nigerian casino tycoon fights for control of Lagos…theatre troupe re-enacts the Westgate terrorist attack…TV journalist covers the Garissa College massacre live…A nameless spy meets a heavenly Somali supermodel…A foreigner in Tanzania comes under a cloud of suspicion…A conservationist clashes with ruthless land grabbers…Two poverty-stricken Kenyan beauties flee to Saudi Arabia…

‘One of Africa’s exciting new literary voices.’ – Vicki Leigh, pan-African.net

The Talking Of Trees by Alexander Nderitu

African Interest
Rated 4.78 out of 5
KShs1,200.00 KShs800.00
This stage play script covers the life, death and legacy of Prof. Wangari Maathai in unsurpassed technicolour. Steeped in research and injected with a heavy dose of imagination (and a double dose of humour), THE TALKING OF TREES will make you laugh, cry, and cheer. A biographical note on the Nobel Prize's official website, www.nobelprize.org, captures the essence of Prof. Maathai: "Wangari Maathai was the first African woman to receive the Nobel Peace Prize. She was also the first female scholar from East and Central Africa to take a doctorate (in biology), and the first female professor ever in her home country of Kenya... Maathai played an active part in the struggle for democracy in Kenya, and belonged to the opposition to Daniel arap Moi's regime. In 1977 she started a grass-roots movement aimed at countering the deforestation that was threatening the means of subsistence of the agricultural population. The campaign encouraged women to plant trees in their local environments and to think ecologically. The so-called Green Belt Movement spread to other African countries, and contributed to the planting of over thirty million trees..."

Hannah and the Angel: Volume 1: Angels 'R' Us

Hannah and the Angel: Volume 1: Angels ‘R’ Us by Alexander Nderitu

Drama
Rated 5.00 out of 5
KShs1,500.00 KShs1,200.00
When Hannah, an adorable teenage girl, is visited by an angel, she thinks that her Hip-Hop-obsessed friend, Jack, is playing a trick on her. But the winged visitor is ‘the real deal…an angel from Heaven.’ It turns out that these ‘winged messengers of God’ are just as flawed - and humorous! – as mortal humans, and through her encounter, Hannah learns the virtue of tolerance and importance of forgiveness. 'Hannah and the Angel' is a stage play for people of all faiths. It’s a morality tale about the complexity of human relations, the struggle between the young and the old, and the duel between good and evil. It’s a sunbeam for a world made chaotic by human imperfections. It’s like being touched by an angel.

When The Whirlwind Passes by Alexander Nderitu

Books
Rated 4.50 out of 5
KShs1,700.00 KShs1,500.00
Maggie Njeri's encounter with Michael Othaya, the young heir to a multi-billion-shilling fashion empire, marked the beginning of a cataclysmic cycle of events that would involve sex, manipulation, conspiracy...and first-degree murder.
To be sure, the Sultans of Fashion had had their fair share of scandals and intrigues in the past. Overly ambitious and genetically predisposed towards greed, the rich and famous Othayas were no strangers to controversy. But it wasn't until Michael and Maggie - a ghetto princess - started romancing that the feuding family's civil war reached its climax...
Easily digested and written with a handle on humour, When the Whirlwind Passes is doubtless one of the best crime novels to ever come out of Africa.
‘Alex Nderitu is one of a handful of young, brilliant writers to come off the Kenyan terrain in the recent past. His books (hoping there will be many more)…are pure commercial escapism, and brilliantly written at that.’

Once upon a time, Tracy Whitney was one of the best thieves in the business. Then she settled down and had a child—a beautiful, bright, mischievous boy who was the center of her life. Tracy planned to spend the rest of her days quietly, living anonymously deep in the stunning Colorado mountains, devoted to raising her son. But tragedy forces her to face her greatest nightmare. Now, with nothing left to protect, this superb con artist, jewel thief, computer wizard, and cat burglar returns to the hunt, more dangerous, ruthless, and reckless than ever. The world faces a new terror threat from Group 99, a diverse collection of global hackers intent on the collapse of capitalism and private wealth and the creation of a new world order. When the group turns to violence—kidnapping an American investigative journalist, shooting a British military hostage, and blowing up an international industrialist—the mysterious woman pulling their strings, a wily and wealthy American known only as Althea, becomes the CIA’s most sought criminal. But their only hope of finding her is a woman with a dark and dangerous past of her own. A woman who has also successfully evaded detection by the authorities around the world: Tracy. Convinced that Althea is behind the deadly act that shattered her life, Tracy sets out on a global hunt to flush out her prey. But as she soon discovers, the truth is as elusive as her target. Hampered by corruption, lies, and enemies masked as allies, Tracy will be pushed to the brink, where she must face her darkest demons. All of her experience tells Tracy that the answers are right in front of her—if only she can look at the clues in the right way. Propelled by an unquenchable thirst for revenge, and with the fate of so many resting in her hands, just how reckless will Tracy become when she has nothing left to lose?

Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen

Books, Romances & Thrillers
Rated 1.00 out of 5
KShs1,690.00 KShs1,490.00
Two sisters, one practical and full of commonsense, the other a passionate and emotional creature, an uncaring brother and his avaricious wife, a handsome rake and a faithful gentleman – these are some of the unforgettable characters who make Jane Austen's first published novel, Sense and Sensibility such a delightful, witty and timeless classic. Sense and Sensibility is a charming story of two sisters who see life from two very different viewpoints. When their father suddenly dies, leaving his entire estate to their half-brother John, the sisters, Elinor and Marianne Dashwood, their mother and youngest sister Margaret are thrown at the financial mercy of John and his mean-minded wife, Fanny. Mrs Dashwood and her daughters soon realize that they are not welcome at their former home Norland Hall. Fanny's brother Edward Ferrars, who is quite different from his greedy and graceless sister, arrives and begins to form an attachment to Elinor, which is violently opposed by Fanny. Mrs Dashwood is hurt and bewildered, but finally realizes that they have no option but to leave. They move to Devonshire, where Mrs Dashwood's cousin, Sir John Middleton welcomes them and helps them to find suitable lodgings. While out walking one rainy evening, Marianne suffers a small accident and is rescued by the suave and dashing John Willoughby. She falls passionately in love with him. The story takes several interesting twists and turns, driven by the opposing natures of the two sisters. More than two hundred years after publication, this delightful tale still manages to capture the reader's imagination as it echoes universal truths of passion, love, social status and ethics. Sense and Sensibility is a coming of age novel, marked by Jane Austen's deliciously ironic and sharp wit and famously under-stated style that will certainly appeal to modern-day readers.

Someone is targeting her, manipulating a series of disturbing events and raising terrifying ghosts she thought were dead and buried.
