The latest end is in Cabinda, a tiny Portuguese colony with gaily painted buildings and a history of slave-trading. Hoop should have a pleasant stay at the home of the local administrator but the other guests are an unpleasant mix of hangers-on, including a shady lawyer and an overly chummy Brit. When one of them is murdered, Hoop calls in Dr. Mary Finney, the Miss Marple of the tropics. As usual, the formidable Dr. Finney has both stellar sleuthing skills and a .45 in her necessaries bag. Both will come in handy if she's to sort through the tangled threads of the Cabinda Affair.

FROM THE PUBLISHER-World War II is over but Hooper Taliaferro is still in Africa, typing up Uncle Sam's loose ends. The latest end is in Cabinda, a tiny Portuguese colony with gaily painted buildings and a history of slave-trading. Hoop should have a pleasant stay at the home of the local administrator-the beer, after all, is cold, and the women beautiful-but the other guests are an unpleasant mix of hangers-on, including a shady lawyer and an overly chummy Brit on constant look-out for a loan.

Both will come in handy if she's to sort through the tangled threads of the Cabinda Affair. inventory #43350.
