Nuria Ranking: #2 in Secondary (8-4-4)Rita, the ambitious matriarch of the Mugambi empire, is an overbearing mother to her sons, Zain and Bahati. She runs her family as she runs her businesses – with an iron fist – and swiftly and mercilessly deals with any sign of rebellion. Are the boys willing to sacrifice their fortunes and status for the sake of freedom and a chance to reinvent themselves?
n
nSet in the dynamic city of Nairobi, ‘Old Money’ juxtaposes the lives of those privileged to be sitting in the lap of luxury, with the lives of those ecking out a living. The author draws us into a deeply riveting journey of transformation which explores corruption, exploitation, family relationships and blind ambition.

Moses on the Move
It's half-term. Most of the boys at Mukibi's Educational Institute for the Sons of African Gentlemen are going home for the holiday, but Moses and King Kong have a better plan.

It isn't really their fault that Finito shortly finds his business in ruins and himself on the run from the police. The boys too have their own problems: Mr Karanja, the school's deputy headmaster, is hot on their trail.
