About Making Wolf

' Shocking and perceptive' Guardian 'It was easy to stay up well past lights out to read just one more chapter - and then one more...' James Oswald 'Engaging' Sunday Times LONGLISTED FOR THE CWA GOLD DAGGER Meet Weston Kogi , a London supermarket store detective. He returns home to his West African home country for his aunt's funeral. He sees his family, his ex-girlfriend Nana , his old school mate Church. Food is good, beer is plentiful, and telling people he works as a homicide detective seems like harmless hyperbole, until he wakes up in hell. He is kidnapped and forced by two separate rebel factions to investigate the murder of a local hero, Papa Busi. The solution may tip a country on the brink into civil war. Ma king Wolf is the outrageous, frightening, violent and sometimes surreal homecoming experience of a lifetime. Praise for Tade Thompson: 'Breathtaking landscapes and intoxicating food and drink . . . endemic corruption, sultry sexuality and casual, slapdash violence . . . A rock-and-roll edge' The Financial Times 'Brutal, uncompromising and thought-provoking . . . superb' M. W. Craven 'A magnificent tour de force' Adrian Tchaikovsky 'Smart. Gripping. Fabulous!' Ann Leckie 'Mesmerising' M. R. Carey
