African ju-ju in Glasgow, and murders naturally. As always it's hard to know who to trust and this one ends up taking Rhona to the heart of darkness, or Nigeria at least.

The strongest of the series so far, with some of the same caveats as previous entries. The Glasgow parts work well, the Nigerian scenes less convincing, although the action is tense. Still waiting for Rhona to ditch the irritating and spineless Sean.

strange to have a forensic officer for a detective. who dun it trail reversed through the personal life of all the characters which simply bloats the plot without adding any thing to mystery. African ritual adds macabre color.
