A Nest of Voodoo Dolls
Botswana Police Sergeant Duski Lcha is the daughter of a Zionist preacher whose sermons berate witch doctors and their ungodly practises. Desperate to find a man she could call her own in a culture where infidelity is the norm and the possibility of forming a monogamous relationship is as unlikely as getting frostbite in the Kalahari, Duski does the unthinkable in order to achieve this goal. With her fathers sermons constantly whirling around her head, she seeks the services of a local witch doctor who prescribes her a ritual bath. But when Ali, the constable she later meets and falls in love with after taking the prescribed bath, becomes the third victim of an elusive killer, Duski begins to wonder if this is the work of a wrathful deity. Like the other victims, when Alis body is discovered, his genitals are missing, but Duski is convinced that the ritual bath she took before meeting him, has something to do with his deathif she hadnt taken the bath, would he still be alive? With neither suspects nor leads and unwilling to let the murder of one of their own go cold, CID begin to take an interest in Duskis whereabouts on the night Ali died. The lack of a credible alibi and the determination to get CID off her back and find her boyfriends killer leaves Duski with a difficult choice. But can her fathers sermons stop her from crossing over to the dark side?

Об авторе (2013)
Betty Keletso Knight was born in Lentswe-le-Moriti, a picturesque, privately owned religious village in the Tuli Block and a popular tourist destination in eastern Botswana. Her father was one of the village pastors who spent week days in Selibe-Phikwe, a mining town where he ran a taxi business, while her mother taught at the local primary school. Betty spent time in both the village and the mining town and later went to a boarding school in Tonota village where she completed her secondary education. Betty undertook a year’s national service before joining the Botswana Police Service, and after successfully completing training, she was posted to Central Police Station, in Gaborone. After two years of beat patrols and shift work, she was transferred to the Special Support Group and was attached to the Botswana Police band where she played the saxophone and flute in the marching band and performed backing vocals in the dance band. After five years of service, Betty resigned from the police service at the rank of sergeant to retrain as an English teacher. She studied both English and music at Molepolole College of Education, where she met her husband-to-be, who was a lecturer at the college. After graduating with a diploma in secondary education, they both moved to Gabane where she got her first English teaching post at Nare Sereto Junior Community School. In 1998 Betty moved to England with her husband and settled in Alton, Hampshire. Four years later, she went on to study English at Winchester University and subsequently went on to study for a master’s in contemporary English literature, which she successfully completed in 2007. Teaching English and writing crime fiction now take up most her time, but she periodically revisits Botswana to see family and friends.

Chapter TwentyTwo
She had been playing near the temple when she noticed the shimmering bowl sitting on a pedestal. Intrigued by its beauty, she reached out and touched it. Immediately, she felt a tingle of energy and knew that something extraordinary had happened. Maya was a kind-hearted girl and had always wished to help those in need. She knew that she had been chosen by the gods to use the magic bowl. With great excitement, she used the bowl to grant her first wish - she wished for all the hungry people in her village to have food. The next day, the village was filled with abundant food. Everyone marveled at Maya's generosity and wondered how she had done it. Maya, with a smile on her face, explained the power of the magic bowl and how she had used it to help others. News of Maya's magic bowl spread to neighboring villages, and soon people from far and wide came to seek her help. Maya used the bowl to grant wishes for the sick to be healed, for the poor to have shelter, and for the lonely to find companionship. The magic bowl brought happiness and prosperity to all those who crossed Maya's path. However, as time went on, Maya started to feel overwhelmed by the constant requests for help. She had exhausted the bowl's power and felt a sense of emptiness. She realized that despite all the good she had done, there was still suffering in the world that she couldn't eliminate. Maya sought guidance from the village elders, who explained to her that the true power of the magic bowl was not in its ability to grant wishes, but in its ability to inspire others. The bowl was meant to be a symbol of hope and a reminder that each person had the power to make a difference. With this newfound understanding, Maya embraced her role as a catalyst for change. She used her experiences with the magic bowl to inspire others to help those in need, empowering them to make a positive impact on the world. And so, the magic bowl continued its journey, inspiring kindness and compassion wherever it went. It taught people to not only rely on their wishes but also to take action and make a difference. From that day on, Maya and the magic bowl became legends, reminding people of the power of good deeds and the magic that lies within each of us..
