To Russia, with OneLove
Chenai "Ce-Ce" Chisango and her brother, Farai, are contracted to handle security for Zimbabwean reggae star Mike Ndlovhu- Mike OneLove to the international fans who cannot say his name - as he tours Eastern Europe.
It is set to be a paid holiday, demanding no more exertion than standing around the singer and looking mean. At least, that is what the sibling duo thought they were signing up for.
But when they get to Russia, Ce-Ce and Farai have to contend with Neo-Nazis, the Russian Mafia, international espionage and a murder to solve.

Murder at the Nottinghill Carnival
London's Nottinghill Carnival is Europe's biggest street party, a celebration of the sights, sounds, movements, smells and colours of Britain as a melting pot. Unfortunately, it also gives the Metropolitan Police one hell of a headache.
When a famous Sound System operator is found stabbed on the streets, it is all too tempting to dismiss the killing as another statistic in what the Met and the media call "Black on Black Crime". It is not too far-fetched a theory; this sort of thing happens all the time. However, Police Detective Alisha Campbell has a hunch. There is only one other person she can think of who can pursue the case from merely a hunch. Her old friend from their days filling shelves at Tesco's in Luton. Alisha goes on leave, and flies to Zimbabwe to look up Chenai "Ce-Ce" Chisango.
The First Dread Eye Detective Agency Omnibus
Three novels taking us back to the roots of the Dread Eye Detective Agency.
THE DREAD EYE DETECTIVE AGENCY- the story of how Chenai "Ce-Ce" Chisango, a young Rastafarian woman, leaves an irrepairably broken marriage and returns to her native Zimbabwe. She rekindles her dream of becoming a detective, and persuades her brother, who has also returned from abroad, to join her.
THE SACRED HILLS - Ce-Ce and Farai Chisango are visiting friends in the scenic Nyanga Mountains along the border with Mozambique. A school-girl, Nyarai, is found dead at the foot of the sacred Mt Sadomba. Has she, through some act of sacrilege, angered the spirits that inhabit the mountains? The police don't think so, and promptly arrest her boyfriend. But how else can her death be explained?
THE CHI-TOWN ROUGHRIDERS- As armed bank robberies increase, the Dread Eye Detective Agency is called in to assist by captains of the country’s financial sector. Ce-Ce just happens to be in a bank when it falls victim to a daring, apparently well-planned raid and Abrihet, another Rastafarian woman, is kidnapped. Why did the robbers take her? And why would they invite the full wrath of a legal system that still provides for capital punishment by leaving her to be found dead on the edge of the city?
