A lost child. A missing hero. A bitter rivalry.
In Cairo the ghosts of the past are stirring...
The ancient city of Cairo is a whirling mix of the old and the new, where fates collide and the super rich rub shoulders with the desperate and the dispossessed. It is a place where ambition and corruption go hand in hand, and where people can disappear in the blink of an eye.
Makana is a former police inspector who fled for his life from his native Sudan seven years ago. Down on his luck and haunted by the past, he lives on a rickety Nile houseboat. When the notorious and powerful Saad Hanafi hires him to track down a missing person Makana is in no position to refuse him.

I'm excited - this has been on my list for a while. Thanks, Mitford!
It is also available, and couponable at Kobo, at least at the Kobo US site. It shows as $2.99 to start, but if you use one of the many codes floating around over in the Kobo books discount thread, you can easily get it down to $2.00 or less.
