Despite being one of the first mysteries set in Africa — but not sub-Saharan Africa — it has very little local colour. In many ways it could take place anywhere. However, this Hercule Poirot mystery is full of intrigue and plot twists.

Every other page causes readers to change their minds as to whom to suspect. The passengers on the Nile cruiser are wonderfully eccentric, with a basketful of motivations for murder. It takes the skill of Poirot to see through the misdirections to solve the case. He is best known for his Kramer and Zondi series, set in the midst of the apartheid era, in which a white detective, Lieutenant Tromp Kramer of the Trekkersburg police, partners with black Bantu Detective Sergeant Mickey Zondi.
Song Dog , set in , was the last written of the series, but is actually a prequel to the first book, Steam Pig. It is in Song Dog that the two protagonists meet for the first time, bumping into each other in a remote place in Zululand while investigating different cases. Song Dog, as with the other books in the series, is a wonderful depiction of the complexities and unpleasantness of life in apartheid South Africa. The interactions between people of different races and the tensions between the English- and Afrikaans-speaking whites are realistically portrayed.
But what I like best is the relationship between Kramer and Zondi — they develop a fondness and respect for each other that has to exist within the confines of apartheid and often has to be concealed from others. Add to this good plots and wry humour, and all the books in the series are delightful reads. A word of caution: in today's world some of the language in the books would be regarded as very derogatory, but its presence is necessary for the accurate depiction of the era.
But he has an excellent series of books set in West Africa around a dubious hero operating in a dubious environment. In the first book in the series — Instruments of Darkness — set in Benin, we meet English ex-pat Bruce Medway as he buys and sells and fixes, pretty much at the edge of the law. But then no one cares about that there anyway. A deal that goes wrong leads him to a search for a murdered man. Along the way he meets Bagado, a smart and able policeman, whose skills aren't valued in a country where corruption is the currency of officialdom.
As he tries to solve the crime, the detective worries if he'll be paid his salary at all and whether he can live on it if he is.

The plot is gripping, the characters alive, and the backdrop the shabbiness of a collapsing system. Unity Dow was the first female High Court judge in Botswana and participated in the landmark case concerning Bushmen rights. She is the author of four books. The Screaming of the Innocent is a powerful and disturbing book.

A young girl vanishes; the police guess that she has been eaten by a lion, but the reader knows that she has been ritually murdered for body parts reputed to bestow great power. Years later a female student doing national service in the community comes across a box of clothing which seems to belong to the missing girl. But after she draws attention to it, the box vanishes. She seeks out a friend — now a lawyer — and the two young women pursue the matter together. The book is good not only because of the intriguing characters and plot, but because the reader finds the premise completely believable because the perspective is purely African.
To westerners, witchcraft has become almost flippant superstition, like avoiding a black cat. But in many African cultures, it is not only respected and feared, but deeply believed. It is this that Dow manages to capture so well in her novel. The heroine follows the twists and turns and seems to be taking us to a successful resolution. But Africa is often not like that. The Mission Song revolves around its narrator, Salvo, illegitimate son of a white Catholic missionary and a Congolese mother.
Salvo is a professional translator specialising in the languages of the Congo region. Salvo's linguistic abilities lead him into a vipers' nest of business men, civil servants and mercenaries apparently intent on freeing his home province of Kivu.
As the story unfolds, it becomes clear that actually what is planned is a coup followed by a puppet government to oversee the exploitation of the country's mineral wealth. African crime fiction? Little of the book takes place in Africa. But the key characters are African through and through and their needs and desires drive the story.
While the backdrop of the book is the exploitation of Africa by unscrupulous westerners, the development of Salvo as a thinking person and as an African is the real story. Deon Meyer is the best known contemporary South African crime writer. His six books have won a number of awards, and he was the first to honestly reflect the current realities of the new South Africa in his books.
