Produktbeschreibung

Good things are happening in the tiny African Republic of Malinda, especially for the four women who live at the Heifer Boma, Elspeth Christiaan's remote shamba in the wild bush country of the Northern District. Cassandra's wedding to Major Riley is quickly approaching. So is her performance with the Maatlamotse Symphony Orchestra. And because of her perfect score on the Malindan Bar Exam, she qualified to become a barrister, instead of just a solicitor. Things are going well for Major Riley, too. Commanding General of the Army David Botshelo has looked favorably on plans to triple the size of Riley's band of commandos. Danger Dan Coetzee has taken up residence in a teacher's cabin at the Etobi School west of Nyati. And he seems to spend a lot of time at the Little Hospital helping Doctor Patti the Stewardess. As everyone knows, honey badgers have an extremely acute sense of smell, and Henry thinks they smell very compatible, and when they're together, they reek of oxytocin. Marea Thembekile has finally finished her history of Malinda. It's a massive work, and she worries if it's too long. Patti says to publish it in three volumes. Marea doesn't have the money. But Patti does. Good things are happening at TV2 in Maatlamotse. They hire a beautiful, young host for their morning show. Her name is Reverie!, and she's an instant success. The audience loves her. And no one loves her more intensely than Astro Van Gogh Crescendo, self-described as the greatest artist the world has ever known. That leads to trouble. Cassandra and Riley marry in a beautiful traditional bush country ceremony. Returning from their honeymoon, they make a grisly discovery that leads to a trial. Cassandra accepts the job of defense council. It's a thankless job, and a dangerous one, and Cassandra finds herself in deadly peril. To save her life, and the life of her innocent client, she needs the help of a world-renowned consulting detective. She needs the help of Henry the Honey Badger. Themistocles Jacks was born years ago to parents much older than himself. He was an ordinary child who exhibited no promise of distinction. His only distinction, besides a lack of distinction, was the happy accident of being in the tiny African republic of Malinda, meeting the most interesting people there, and relating their stories in these books. Of course, the most interesting of the characters is a remarkable honey badger named Henry.
