The Matatu Slasher by Keith Kinambuga
A new urban crime horror novel from award-winning writer, Keith Kinambuga:
Meet Ireri Njau, a hard working makanga moonlighting as a social media news correspondent.
When a passenger on his matatu is brutally attacked and killed by a masked, panga-wielding jua kali welder, Ireri’s instincts push him to report the crime online. But his need for social media attention attracts the killer, and puts him in conflict with his boss and the matatu stage skwodi, who want business to return to normal.
As the danger mounts, Ireri’s pregnant wife, Wamuyu, senses the threat closing in. With her lupus symptoms flaring up and a baby on the way, Ireri is torn between protecting his family and feeding the online frenzy. His decision to pursue both leads to enemies on all sides—his family, the police, his matatu colleagues and the ruthless killer now known as The Matatu Slasher.

No Tears for the Cherished: A Memoir
No Tears for the Cherished is the heart-wrenching story of Dr. Nyaboke Nduati’s small town childhood in Eastern Africa. Surrounded, and silenced, by devastating domestic abuse, family dysfunction and illness, witchcraft, patriarchal oppression, physical and sexual abuse, female circumcision, and the early deaths of both of her parents, she protected herself by going into survival mode; a state of numbness that was her shield against the realities of her troubled life. Through a deeply and vividly honest letter to her dead mother, Dr. Nyaboke Nduati explores the events of her life before and after becoming an AIDS orphan.
Her experiences of a childhood in distress, and a teenagehood of trying to put the pieces of her life back together, are all too relatable. She writes boldly, yet delicately, about the realities of an orphaned childhood, when no one comes to the rescue.
