Mehso-so

This wasn‘t my favorite book, but books set in Djibouti are few and far between. #ReadingAfrica2022

BarbaraBB A difficult country indeed, to find a book for. At least you finished one! 2y
Librarybelle Good to persevere! This is definitely a hard country to find a book for. 2y

A group of Swedish soldiers take some locals in #Djibouti to a shooting range, where someone ends up dead. Investigator Ernst Grip is called in to investigate and while there gets involved with a search for a Swedish family hijacked by Somali pirates. This could be a complete testosterone fest but it‘s not—Grip is bisexual and the main female characters are strong women not described by their bodies. I liked it!

BarbaraBB Great choice. How do you find these books?! 3y
Hooked_on_books @BarbaraBB This one was a lucky find just the other day. I‘m a member of Libro.fm for audiobooks and it happened to show up in their sale books. The description just mentioned Africa but not which country, so I was delighted when it was Djibouti, as I didn‘t have a book for there on my list. Pure luck! 3y

BarbaraBB Such a difficult country to find a book for. I might steal this idea! 3y
