The Very Edge of New Harare - futuristic murder mystery
Meet Detective Lieutenant Abel Enetame. He’s a single father who works Homicide in one of the busiest cities in the United States of Africa. The continent’s been modernized … there are no longer any individual countries and no tribes. Industry is booming, and the last remaining wildlife has been confined to a small handful of game reserves.

But there is still darkness of a hundred kinds lurking out there in the night beyond the glittering new cities. Old beliefs and prejudices, and a primal wildness that just will not go away. And when a man’s butchered corpse is found – left on an anthill overnight – Abel finds himself being plunged along a route that will lead him back into his homeland’s ancient origins.

Interesting premise and interesting retro-style cover art. Is this a short story or a preview?

It's a full short story, nearly 9,000 words long, which I think qualifies it as a novelette. The cover art is by M. Wayne Miller, who's done several of the covers and internal illustrations for my collections from Dark Regions Press.

Thanks from me too. Certainly can't hurt to give it a try at that price!

I did! Thanks again! (Although I argued with the protagonist over his decision at the end. Still, it was logical -- for him.) Posted a review.
