This was a good who-dunnit
but can not compare to "Death In Kenya". Not nearly as atmospheric or
intense. Still, it was good and I look forward to reading the others in
the series.*just a FYI This book is a sequel to "Trade Wind", although it was written before Trade Wind. In other words, M.M. Kaye wrote "Death In Zanzibar" and then afterwards went back and wrote the story which was to have taken place 100 years prior (Trade Wind). Maybe thats why this story just didn't satisfy me. Trade Wind is an epic (a blockbuster) and this is a mild who dunnit. Not nearly as good. But still worth reading and a good murder mystery with some hidden treasure thrown in there too.
