James is a private investigator specializing in Africa. Her true-life tales are fascinating and harrowing. Her writing style is pretty good - very vivid descriptions. But I wonder if she truly "loves" Africa? It seems she has little good to say about it. She definitely does NOT like rich, urban, "spoiled" CEO types! I'm glad I read it, but I'm not sure I'd recommend it over [Out of Africa] or [West with the Night].
This book is a fantasy masquerading as travel narrative. James clearly has only visited some of these places as a tourist, and others not at all, but the stories are entertaining.
