Samwel Samburo is a detective working in an under-funded and over-stretched Police Department in Kenya. He is a family man with strong feelings of goodwill towards his fellow human beings but struggles to cope with everyday local crimes. A city robbery develops into a murder hunt which starts a chase across Kenya. There are also deaths attributed to witchdoctors which have to be investigated. And there's a new wave of international criminals attracted by the rich pickings linked to the smuggling of rubies and diamonds.This vivid portrait of a country in transition shows a good man struggling against political corruption, an overbearing and incompetent superior and the tensions and conflicts brought about by social change.
