Rebecca Kamau has married her Tom. Her golden voice has brought her wealth and fame and she has become the most loved woman in the country. Abel Rubai has at last realised that she is his true nemesis. His calm exterior hides the poisonous anger that seethes deep within him. He is driving himself to the edge of madness. His every attempt to deal with this scourge and her supporters has ended in humiliating frustration. The tall tree is rotting from within. And now this woman has ideas of interfering in the running of the country with her amateur effort to set up a hospital for the people of her town. He will see to it that she does not succeed. He is beginning to make errors of judgement and the violent destruction of the beginnings of the hospital build only makes him new enemies and stiff ens the resolve of his opposition. The small group that is the core of this opposition settles on a bold and dangerous plan. Fully aware that Mister Big is still just that to the masses who...]]> Tue, 12 Nov 1996 08:53:18 +0200 Girl with the Golden Voice https://shapeshifters.library.land/carl-hancock/134577-girl_with_the_golden_voice.html https://shapeshifters.library.land/carl-hancock/134577-girl_with_the_golden_voice.html

In the early years of the twentieth century, the rich English aristocrat, Lord Delamere, led a group of well-off pioneers out of the northern deserts into the Great Rift Valley in Kenya. He immediately fell in love with its spectacular grandeur and its fertile lands. He saw opportunities for big profits for the European bwanas. It did not take long for him to discover, too, the fierce passions of the tribal loyalties that divided its people. A hundred years on, European Kenyans run their prosperous flower farms on the shores of the freshwater jewel of Lake Naivasha in the heart of the Great Rift. The McCalls of Londiani are well-loved employers of a workforce of hundreds of local people whose skills produce top quality roses and carnations for export for the Dutch flower market. In this tranquil, idyllic place, two young people fall deeply in love. Tom, eldest son of the third generation of McCalls, and the talented and beautiful Rebecca Kamau, laundry girl at Big House, enjoy...]]> Thu, 12 Nov 2015 10:24:43 +0200 Bloodline https://shapeshifters.library.land/carl-hancock/130887-bloodline.html https://shapeshifters.library.land/carl-hancock/130887-bloodline.html

Big boss, Abel Rubai, has made himself very wealthy by honest dealing in the international money markets, but he is a man much feared in the country. Upset him and your life could be in danger. He expects to get away with every outrage he sets in motion. When tragedy strikes his family, he is shocked. This is not the way things are meant to be for the Rubais. Someone will have to pay a big price to satisfy his thirst for vengeance. He focuses his attention on the McCalls of Londiani. It is they, he claims, who have robbed him of his son. This focus does not distract him from an unfinished piece of savagery. In his usual ruthless way he has been engineering the brutal murder of a fine, much-loved doctor. Without even realising it, he has gone too far, perhaps this time sowing the seeds of his own ruin. Using Londiani as a base, a few friends and neighbours, members of a newly formed political party, realise that they must take on the Rubai machine. THey are anxious, aware that...]]> Tue, 12 Nov 2013 08:53:19 +0200
