Thrillers & Page-Turners

Sometimes you just want a book that won't let you put it down. A hostage crisis in the Niger Delta creeks, a man on the run through a country sliding into dystopia, a drug run gone wrong in Nairobi, one very bad weekend among the Lagos elite, and a boarding school with a body count. Genre fiction from the continent is thriving and we think it deserves to sit right next to the literary prizewinners, not in a back corner.
